Input into text prompts gets added to the message buffer

The player's input into text prompts (wish, [re]naming, etc) gets added to the message buffer and is viewable with :m.

EDIT: This also affects item notes (including posthumous ones!).

Ehh, I think this could as well be a feature. :m is used to understand past events, and having player input adds to it. NetHack does this.

But the prompt itself (e.g. "What do you wish for?") isn't actually shown in the buffer, so it's bad/confusing even if intentional.
