Fixes 3.6

Summary of the changes in lib/fixes36.diff to make Nethack 3.6 (most will not be needed anymore for 3.7 release)

• Changes all util programs to .js and use node to run it (only 3.6)
• Mount files to util programs with mount_nodefs.js since it's required to run them (see UTIL_CFLAGS) (only 3.6)
• Added new win type WEB_GRAPHICS for win/web + some config changes? (mostly from NetHackJS + BrowserHack)
  • Added player selection
  • Added rogue level flag
  • Separate JS callbacks for some calls to improve performance (Asyncify make calls too slow)
• Enable wizard mode in unixmain.c#authorize_wizard_mode
• Move iflags.suppress_price--; above inventory update in shk.c (only 3.6)

Generate

To run tools/generate.js, remove type: module from package.json. To lazy to find a solution for it.
