fix github issue #399 - [not] fixing chest lock

Use ansimpleoname() instead of doname() to describe the key or
lock pick or credit card when reporting "You can't fix a chest's
broken lock with a <foo>."  doname() includes BUC status when
known and feedback mentioning a particular bless/curse state on
the tool that can't be used to fix the lock suggests that some
other bless/curse state might be viable.
