integer meleeattack ( ch : unitptr, vict : unitptr,
bonus : integer, wtype : integer )
ch : The character which should make an additional attack.
vict : The victim of the attack.
bonus : Any penalty or bonus added to the attack.
wtype : The weapon type of the attack, if a valid type then that is
used for the attack purpose, otherwise the default weapon/hand
attack is used.

result: 'ch' performs a melee attack (using whatever weapon is wielded
or his bare hands) against 'vict'. Returns the amount of damage
given (-1 is failed).

If wtype is within a valid weapon range (WPN_XXX) any weapon will
be bypassed, and the value will be used as the attacktype. Good
for things like "meleeattack(ch, vict, bonus, WPN_CIRCLE_KICK)"
if you want person to be able to perform an extra attack even
though wielding a weapon or something. Note that this will require
BOTH a weapon type WPN_CIRCLE_KICK and a skill "kick" in order for
it to work.
