e.g. publishing "0" to node/#/set/intr will clear the node-interrupt flag.
Any non-zero message value will "set" the flag. Same is true for the
lock, down, and rerun topics/flags.

These node attributes (misc) flags could be cleared previously
by setting the 'misc' topic (e.g. to 0), but since that's not an atomic
read/modify/write operation, other set misc flags could be lost clearing flags
in that manner.

<nelgin> can I push an intr instruction to a node with mqtt?

node/#/set/status - set the node status value (to an integer)
node/#/set/errors - set the node error counter (to an integer, e.g. "0")
node/#/set/misc - set the node's miscellaneous attributes/flags value
 (hexadecimal values can be set by including "0x" prefix)

The message (payload) doesn't matter for the following topics:
node/#/set/lock - lock a node (no one but sysop can login)
node/#/set/intr - interrupt a node (disconnect a user)
node/#/set/down - down a node (not available for connections)
node/#/set/rerun - rerun a node (reload config upon next connection)

These should probably be moved (along with other node functions in this file)
to nodedat.* some day.

Just fall-through to display help output for unrecognized options.

Remove unnecessary call to JSON.stringify() in non-JSON mode

This allows command-lines to be more cross-platform/host

Use a timed event and/or execute via jsexec

DD Upload Processor: Scan failure output is now logged to the system log instead of outputted to the logged-in user

DD Upload Processor: Scan failure output is now logged to the system log instead of outputted to the logged-in user

A "prepped" means directory means a relative path from the configuration files
(or default settings) has been converted to a full/absolute path with proper
slashes for the platform (i.e. backslashes instead of forward-slashes on
Windows).

JSexec doesn't require that the new v3.20 ctrl/*.ini files exist to run; this
was necessary to be able to run 'jsexec update -> upgrade_to_v320.js' which
does the ctrl/*.cnf to .ini file conversion (egg not required to build
chicken). When JSexec failed to load ctrl/msgs.ini
(e.g. "!ERROR loading configuration files: 2 (No such file or directory)
opening /sbbs/ctrl\msgs.ini"), it would continue to run, but not "prep" any
of the "path" settings (e.g. exec_dir).

The first run of 'jsexec update.js' would fail to run upgrade_to_v320.exe
(which does the v3.20 user base conversion) and a bunch of other (but not as
important) update steps because Windows couldn't execute "../exec/*".

Multiple errors would be displayed in this case, but the most important (as
reported by Ree in #synchronet of irc.synchro.net) was:
  '..' is not recognized as an internal or external command

right after the status output:
  No v3.20 user base found, running ../exec/upgrade_to_v320

Notice the "../exec/" prefix, which is not support by Windows when specifying
a file path to execute.

A second run of 'jsexec update' would work fine because the new v3.20 .ini
files would be successfully created after the first run (though the user base
was not).

This is likely the same issue that MRO reported recently when upgrading a
Windows SBBS v3.19 install to v3.20 and not having the user base upgraded
the first time.

get_ansi_seq() here can return null, don't pass that value to mqtt.publish()
which gets converted to a string.

... for when your terminal and the node client terminal don't use the same
character set. Only CP437 and UTF-8 addressed in this commit, not PETSCII
or plain ASCII.

This was never possible before MQTT.

For read-only spying, the mqtt_spy.js module can be used via jsexec (from an
OS shell command prompt), similar to mosquitto_sub.

For read-write spying, just use the ;SPY sysop command as before and if MQTT
is configured/enabled, it'll use MQTT rather than sockets or shared memory
queues to spy on the target node.

For the first time, you can spy between nodes that are on different servers of
the same BBS using the ;SPY sysop command.

Passes through ctrl characters (except Ctrl-C), unlike the built-in spy
function. This could be revisited later or made optional, but it sems to make
sense to allow Ctrl-Z (e.g. to save a message in fseditor.js) to be passed
through to the target node.

As reported by Deon on DOVE-net, when the call to socket_recvdone() returns
true (socket is disconnected and all data has been recv()ed), dial() would
report "NO CARRIER" but leave the open socket opened, thus preventing any
subsequent dial attempt ("Can't dial: Already connected" and "ERROR").

Also removed the source file path/name from the debug print statements - don't
need that noise.

Incremented the version to 0.4

This allows directly setting bright foreground and background colours
rather than using bold and blink to indirectly modify them.

These do not have an effect if the desired mode is not possible
(ie: no bright background, no bright foreground).

There's a few ASCII control codes that need to be translated, so
add a new mapping function that tries the map first, then returns
ASCII on failure to map.

Fixes inability to use ATASCII in curses mode.

Previously, both the shift key, and the "implied shift" from CAPS
were treated as a higher priority than the CTRL modifier.  With
this change, only the explicit shift key has priority, and the
implicit one is only checked after CTRL is checked.
