shielding bashing

Extracted from a larger patch:  the only way to get silver damage
bonus from attacking with a shield of reflection (polished silver
shield) is to throw it or to wield it.  Give different feedback when
hitting something while wielding a shield (or an iron ball; it seemed
appropriate despite having nothing to due with wanting to dish out
silver damage).
