add some tile credit where it is due

Since tile files can now contain comments, incorporate the comments
that accompanied some contributions that were adopted back when
male and female tile differentiation became possible.

If the original contributing artist wants to alter their name or handle
that was used in any of the credits, or wants to change any comment text,
please send your corrections to devteam@nethack.org.
Or, better yet, do a pull request with your desired alterations.

Alternatively, if they are fine as they are, a note to devteam@nethack.org
acknowledging that would be welcome, but certainly not required.

Thanks again for contributing the tiles.
