A partial retraction of the Ctrl-AZ interpretation changes introduced on

Oct-14-2018:
It turns out, PabloDraw actually inserts a Ctrl-AZ sequence at the end of .msg
(and presumably Synchronet .asc) files it edits - before the SAUCE record.
This resulted in a printed Ctrl-Z character (arrow pointing right) in most
terminals when viewing text/menu files created or edited with PabloDraw. :-(
So, now Ctrl-AZ (uppercase) will revert to the previous definition:
premature end-of-file (EOF)
and a Ctrl-Az (lowercase) will output a Ctrl-Z (substitute) character.
I'm not a big fan of case-sensitive Ctrl-A codes, but frankly, running out of
chars and I already started this pattern with the Ctrl-AF/f sequences.
Hopefully there's no existing software that is/was putting Ctrl-Az (lowercase)
in files, expecting that to trigger a premature EOF. I certainly was not.
