fix object pickup

Mentioned in the newsgroup:  picked up items have stopped merging with
compatible stacks in inventory.

The commit 0c5155584975731f2c37ace88acd046a54ae5aa6 by me on January 5

| fix #H6713 - unpaid_cost: object not on any bill
|
| Stealing a shop object from outside the shop with a grappling hook
| would result in that item being left marked 'unpaid' after the shop's
| bill was treated as being bought and not yet paid for.  This led to
| "unpaid_cost: object wasn't on any bill" every time inventory was
| examined.  The problem was caused by handling the shop robbery after
| removing the object from the floor but before adding it to inventory,
| so it couldn't be found to have its unpaid bit cleared.
|
inadvertently caused that.  The effect was actually deliberate but it
wasn't intended to be so widespread.  Handle extract/bill/addinv/rob
sequencing differently instead of overriding inventory merging.
