zap beam symbol descriptions

They aren't walls.

Noticed while working on a potential change for far-look while
swallowed, zap beams have a bogus description of "wall" that
showed up when looking at '/' and '\\'.  I'm guessing that vbeam
and hbeam were cloned from actual wall symbols and then lslant
and rslant got cloned from them.  There doesn't seem to be any
other reason for the description, which is both wrong and applies
to symbols which aren't on the screen at a time when the player
can use far-look to examine them.  It's been this way since the
creation of the second cvs repository used to start the current
git one; I didn't attempt to go back any farther than that.
