[crossfire] alchemy/alchemy

[Andrew Fuchs]

I don't mind renaming the spell.  Another issue, if i recall correctly
is that some book(s) tell the player to use the alchemy  "spell" on
their cauldron, not the skill; this has caused some trouble to
beginning players before.  Refferences in these books should be
changed.

      it would be equally straightforward to rename the alchemy skill. In
