Attack card: humanoid and quadruped damage buttons

The single Roll damage button becomes two, with person and paw icons. Each
rolls damage and then a hit location. A targeted token still uses its own
anatomy; with no target the blow is placed on the chosen body plan and
shown, with nothing applied. Both buttons disable after either is used.
