[CF-Devel] patch: max level

[crossfire-devel at archives.real-time.com]

With this little change, we can allow players to gain exp
in their skills even if maxed out overall.
We just restrict the maxexp check in change_exp to monsters, as
add_exp checks everything correctly for players already.

Then it is no more harmful to gain experience in "useless" skills.

Speaking of that, it seems to me like fireborn do fire damage with
punching and karate.
While this has a certain logic, it also renders their natural
flame touch useless.
