Adom Sage named monster feature
Removing the monster description of named monsters.

Adom Sage had the option to shorten the descriptions of named monsters, to show only the name of the monster, not the type. It drastically reduced the message spam in certain areas.

It was disabled for wyrms who are always named, but any special NPCs or monsters named by the player would be shortened. In my opinion it could well be enabled for wyrms as well.

For example: "Griff Bloodax, the undead chaos dwarven berserker misses you." would be replaced with "Griff Bloodax misses you."

Maybe as a config variable?

With release 48 of ADOM (the next one, originally ADOM 1.2.0p24, internally now 1.8.0) there will be better (more) handling to reduce the spam problem. Let's see if this feature then still is needed.

Bouncing this one up again as it still is a problem in R65.
