the system timezone, which handles the optional automatic toggle of the DST bit
for US-zones in real-time. Previously, the DST flag would only be toggled when
loading configuration files, now it will happen in real-time.

all files linked with load_cfg.c.

Created IS_PATH_DELIM() macro (stole websrvr.c->is_slash macro).
Defines BSD _PATH_TMP and _PATH_DEVNULL macros for all platforms.

Created sbbs_t::signal_sub_sem() method to handle creation of global
echomail_sem (for FTN sub-boards) and the sub-boards post_sem (if confiugred).

timezone value (for display purposes only).

in the file (uses default attribute of high intensity white). Allows upgrade
from v2.x without overwriting attr.cfg.

grp/lib code prefix (helps generate unique internal codes).

module (.js or .bin) files.
Removed temporary Unix-compatibility hack of converting to lower case:
standard directory paths and loadable modules (which are already lowercase
in the default .cnf files).

or longer, uses a passed 'buflen' parameter to determine the truncation point.

allowing additional sysop-configurable color attribute definitions.

(64) to 48.

- used to specify a physical parent directory for all logical directories in a
file library (convenient for CD-ROMs and other large directory configurations).

Fixed prep_dir() for use on FreeBSD - _fullpath (macro for realpath) initializes the entire MAX_PATH bytes of the destination string.

TEXT.DAT  lines are now allocated with one additional byte and zero-filled for the new YNQX line (was just YN), for backwards compatibility.

Created prep_cfg() function to prepare data (all in one place) for run-time.
