First change optimizes getAdjustedTalentLevel()

Second change fixes deciding whether a random bonus hit happens (as well as fixing extra hits to >100% extra hits, but that doesn't happen until ~44 tLvl with current scaling)

Third change fixes info() to correctly display how many hits and the odds of one more

edit: replaced diff with one that didn't somehow lose a comma after testing the fix
