Title: Added 10% chance to improve scroll and wand skills on use

Fixes issue #328 with scrolls and wands not improving.

The success rate to read a scroll or use a wand was astronomically low (2%), combined with a low chance to succeed in learning (2%), so it would have taken over 12,000 scrolls to get to 100 skill -- several hundred alone just to get from 10 skill to 11 skill. Instead, we'll guarantee that you learn something if you've succeeded in reading a scroll or using a wand. It now would take just 1417, with 800 of those getting you from 10 to 30 skill.
