Make monsters trigger landmines based on weight

The 1/3 likelihood of a monster setting off a landmine seemed a little
arbitrary to me, especially in that it applied equally to all monsters,
from giants to insects.  Change the flat 33% chance to one based on the
monster's body weight, so that lightweight monsters have little to no
chance of setting off a mine, with the likelihood increasing from there
with the monster's weight.

With a trigger weight of 400, as it is in this commit, a dingo has a 0%
chance of setting off a landmine, a gelatinous cube the same 33% chance
as before, an elf a 50% chance, a human a 72% chance, and something the
size of a dragon (ignoring the reduced likelihood for flying monsters) a
91% chance.
