[CF-Devel] new alchemy formulae / artifacts

[Johnny Shelley]

I have added a few new alchemy formulae and artifacts. I plan to start
play testing them on mids's server sometime this week and hopefully get
them into cvs if they aren't terribly unbalancing.

Diffs of lib/formulae and lib/artifacts are attached. I'd appreciate a
little feedback on whether or not some of the new formulae are too
powerful or game unbalancing.
