This is to be used (e.g. instead of NODE_BXFR) for sysop-custom node actions.

so that if multiple entities call these functions at the same time, they
don't retry at exactly the same times.

Add/use SOCKET_STRERROR which gets the description of the *last* socket
error.

We should start using socket_errno(true) in place of ERROR_VALUE (horribly
named macro) for comparing last socket error nubers against values/macros
from errno.h.

Eliminate get_socket_errno(), unused and redundant with socket_errno().

Really need to make the option order (arity) neutral

Addresses Clang warnings about deprecation

This fixes all the "argument unused during compliation" warnings

This breaks armv7 FreeBSD builds.  Presumably it breaks anything
else where va_list isn't a pointer too... and there's no real reason
to expect a va_list to be a pointer except "it's a pointer on the
platform I looked at".

These functions now return a common set of non-zero error values (where
appropriate), defined in userdat.h

Don't return errno.

getnodedat() now performs a non-locked read by default.

Perform more checks of getnodedat() return value before calling putnodedat()
to avoid unintentionally zeroing out node.dab records.

Add/use unlocknodedat() method for unlocking a node.dab record without
writing.

Note: The userdat.c getnodedat() and putnodedat() still return int (i.e. 0 on
success), so that can be confusing.

Since this script already sets an on_exit() handler to call uifc.bail()
it doesn't have to call it again (technically, before) in the "Done" block.
This results in "UIFC is unitialized" error displayed, as reported by
Fernando Toledo. Fixing issue #830

Set WIN_ESC (remains active, but greyed when ESC key pressed) mode flag
on main menu while we're here. That looks better.

There's no need to be unnecessarily redundant in the From header, e.g.
From: "scan-admin@coverity.com" <scan-admin@coverity.com>

This fixes the display of gitlab pushes from Deucе in conforming news readers.

It's possible now for clients to easily exceed the configured max concurrent
connections limit, even though they just get an error 429 page. Let's at least
track and log when a new highwater mark is reached.

Some of the NNTP commands (e.g. LIST) aren't supposed to change the "currently
selected newsgroup". Had to use a different variable name (e.g. mb versus
msgbase) since these message base variables share the function scope).

GROUP and LISTGROUP commands are supposed to set the "current article number"
to the first article in the group. We weren't doing this.

The HEAD, BODY, STAT, and ARTICLE commands aren't *required* to have arguments
and yet, we required they had at least one argument (an article number). Now
fixed.

Enabled "strict mode" even though that didn't catch the colliding 'msgbase'
variable definitions.

Incremented the revision to 1.2

Use it in newsutil get_news_subject() when no original (RFC822)
Subject header field exists.

This should fix issue #817.

Can't backup (make copies of) an open file.

We can't send a 4xx error (ie: client did something wrong) in
plaintext on a TLS connection.

Untested beyond a basic compile check.

Clean-up the web server config menu quite a bit by condensing options.

You can also disable filebase access by setting the vpath prefix to blank.

We need to negate the negative return value to get the number of errors.

We have this feature for the FTP, Mail, and Terminal servers (with no default
limit) but crazy abuse of my Synchronet web servers has now made this a
necessity for Vertrauen. A limit of 2 used to be considered reasonable long
ago. Today, 10 seems fair enough. Setting to 0 will impose no max-connections
per IP address (other than the total client limit per server).

Similar problem as PulseAudio, but even grosser.

The macro was only define in the xpdev GNUmakefile, not in Common,
so bbslist.c did not know if it was enabled or not, and always
showed it as disabled.

Use the fully-formed "From" header field in responses to NNTP
OVER/XOVER and HDR/XHDR requests.

This should fix issue #829 reported by Accession
