Subject: [PATCH] Release dragon_scales_color obuf in doname_base

Apply logic from vanilla commit e43ec0cef1cc7c4e639c7de7e1d9ff26c6c8c629
to an xnh-specific function -- prevent it from needlessly consuming
extra obufs when churning through a lot of inventory (assuming there are
a bunch of dragon-scaled items in there).
