Loom flashlight hack

Description

I was very happy to see that flashlight support has been added to ScummVM. Unfortunately it's broken in Loom CD.

o5_lights() is called twice: supposedly once to turn on the flashlight, and once to set its dimensions. However, the b and c variables are set to 0 in both cases, so it just turns on the flashlight twice and then doesn't do anything useful with it.

I have no idea to solve this properly, so this patch is just a quick workaround hack.

The proper fix is to simply initialize the flashlight size variables to 7 and 7 - that's apparently how the original does it, too.
