examine signature changed to include distance

- distance is INFINITE, 0, or a positive integer based on get_dist() between the examiner and examinee's turfs when they are on the same Z. When the examiner is dead or a ghost, distance is always 0. - also updates /examine( implementations to use it! - adds w_class_to_name proc for reusing "It is a X item." examine behavior.
