We don't clone the Access Requirements from the template sub-board when clonig
(intentionally), similarly we shouldn't copy the Access Requirements of the
template sub-board when creating/adding/importing new sub-boards either.

This should fix issue #736 even though the title and description of the issue
is misleading.

Don't want to have to scroll here.

It basically says "You should move files from where they are to
where they should be".

Support -iD
Use a , instead of CP437 verticla bar as separator.

Also fixes bug with active user list.

Per https://wiki.debian.org/XDGBaseDirectorySpecification, CONFIG
should be fairly small files that you would want to maintain in
a VCS... the list makes sense here.

Instead of ~/.syncterm, use paths as specified in the XDG Base Directory Specification
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

This should really have something that notifies a user everything
moved and instructs them on where each thing should be placed to
keep data from older versions.

Also make it more clear in the online help that some of the new user values
are also applied to Guest (G-restricted) account logons.

We may want to set NO_LTO for the pipeline...

It's better to have deleted messages without a hash than to hash invalid
message numbers.

This can be used to address a (renumbered?) message base that Kirkman
shared with me with "Invalid Message number" chksmb warnings from hash
entries with message numbers > than the base's last_msg.

These were originally non-ASCII char literals.

substrWithAttrCodes() fix (string was too long by 1 char; in dd_lightbar_menu.js); a couple of small corresponding updates in ddfilelister.js

So KOSTEN means "cost" in German, sort of the opposite of FREE. Maybe
"!KOST" would get the point across?

Older versions of Windows don't (always?) call VDDInitialize(), so we need
to statically initialize the uart struct.

This should address the problem reported by Fzf (FQBBS) via DOVE-Net:

... When using the included SBBSEXEC.DLL, the UART emulation
defaults to base address 0x000 and interrupt 0x0.  The lockups do not occur
when this is left as-is but none of the UART emulation does anything.  Setting
a ComPort in a [UART] section of SVDM.INI or SBBSEXEC.INI does change the I/O
address and IRQ to an expected value.  But this isn't necessary.  The mere
existence of one of those two INI files, even if empty, sets the UART to the
expected default of 0x3F8/IRQ4.  The debug entry is always as follows when left
without any INI file:

[180] SBBS: Virtualizing UART (0x0, IRQ 0)

This bug appears to be caused by commit 9266b997 (1 year ago), where
uart was no longer statically-initialzed and relied on VDDInitialize() to be
called to copy default_uart to the uart struct.

Not sure when the last time these files were used, but it couldn't have been
recent.

And is now a good example of how to write a Synchronet command shell in JS,
though classic_shell.js served its purpose.

Range check return value of console.getnum(), as is done in useredit.cpp.

The user hitting ^C at eithe of the terminal columns or rows prompts would
set that value -1.

Don't display "FREE" in file listings for 0 byte files.

When removefcdt() is called for an unknown file uploader, use the new
UnknownUploader text.dat string to display the username and filename.

When prompting to remove credits, include the username from which to remove
the credits.

These usability improvements came from watching Deuce struggle to remove
malicious uploaded-files and credits from (presumably Guest) user. I should
watch sysops manage their BBSes more often.
