fix #H7530 - corpse from corpseless monster

Migrating monster attempting to arrive on a level which is already
full of monsters gets killed off.  It was leaving a corpse without
regard for whether it was a type of of monster which should never
leave corpses.

I'd prefer that it be put back on the migrating_mons list rather
than be killed off, but this just suppresses impossible corpses.
