We were just trusting that the error strings would be shorter than 256 (usually), but since we're including paths and strerror() results, we really have no control over the length of the error strings. So enforce some healthy boundaries. This could explain the crashes that Divarin of Mutiny is seeing with SCFG on WinXP or maybe it was the truncsp(strerror()) stuff that was just removed as well. We'll see...

The goal of this commit is that: only modules that either are part-of sbbs.dll/libsbbs.so or need to link with/use that library, will #include "sbbs.h" and thus be dependent on its subsequent includes (e.g. cryptlib.h, jsapi.h). This should mean extdeps.mk can be trimmed way down.

I also removed CVS keyword/comments and trimmed up the boilerplate copyright notice in modified and added source/header files in this commit.

There is no functional change in behavior in this comment.

SCFG for Win32 is linked against a load_cfg lib that builds withOUT SCFG defined, so these compiled AR elements were allocated and then many SCFG operations (e.g. copy/paste, create new) would copy the allocated ARs to another configuration and then be subjected to double-free upon exit/clean-up (resulting in exception or crash).
Just get rid of this cruft and some other related RAM-byte-saving hold-overs from the MS-DOS days.

- for PETSCII, this is automatic and you don't lose blink, but you do lose
  colored foreground when enabling a bright background ("reverse video")
- for ANSI, this mode is typically referred to as "iCE colors" and disables
  blinking-text support
- Ctrl-AE (^AE) is the new attribute code to enable bright-background
  (will have no effect on ANSI terminals that are not iCE color enabled)
  "E" is now valid in the ctrl/attr.cfg file and string values for JS
  console.attributes assignments, as well
- Ctrl-AI (^AI) - blink - now does nothing for ANSI/ICE color terminals
  (blinking is not supported in combination with bright-background)
- Using a new/non-standard CGA attribute bit-flag to indicate the selection of
  bright-background colors (BG_BRIGHT, bit 10), separate from BLINK.
  This change required all/most char/uchar attribute representations to be
  converted to int/uint.

New text.dat strings:
- PetTerminalDetected (renamed from PetTermDetected)
- PetTerminalQ
- TerminalAutoDetect
- TerminalColumns
- TerminalRows
- TerminalMonochrome
- TerminalColor
- TerminalIceColor
- IceColorTerminalQ
This also moved the MsgCarbonCopyList definition to the end of the file
for now.

PETSCII reverse-video attribute fix:
When a CR is sent to the terminal, the reverse-video attibute is auto-disabled
so update our "current attribute" (curatr) value to match the remote.

Support new printfile/putmsg mode flag: P_WRAP to force an ungraceful
line-wrap (splitting) to the specified column width. If no column width is
specified (0), then this mode will force an ungraceful wrap before the last
terminal column where some terminals *may* auto-wrap.

JS console.printfile() and printtail() methods now support an optional
"orig_columns" argument, similar to console.putmsg(). Must specify P_WORDWRAP
or P_WRAP for this argument to have any effect.

Much improved terminal-type selection/configuration in the user defaults
menu and abort (^C) at any of the yes/no prompts is now detected/handled much
better (to answers to the prompted questions are not saved to the user
settings).

For QuickBBS editors, the default will be the same as previous behavior: to
convert Soft-CRs to Hard-CRs (CRLFs).
For non-QuickBBS editors, the default will be to treat Soft-CRs as any other
valid printable character in the text ("Retain").
A 3rd option is available to strip Soft-CRs completely from the generated
message text.

terminal width) - only used when the QUOTEWRAP option is set. Common values:
0 - current behavior, wrap the quote file to the current terminal width
80 - wrap 80 columns specifically (actually, 79)
9999 - unwrap to long lines (one line per paragraph)

Actually, previously it was wrapping to current terminal width minus 4 when
QUOTEWRAP was enabled. Now, make that current terminal width minus 1
(when quotewrap_cols is set to 0).

  Automatically detect child sub-directories and make them available as virtual
  directories for users to download from - only useful via FTP currently.
* Implemented Sorting options for Message Groups and File Libraries:
  Sub-boards within groups and directories within library can now be
  automatically sorted based on the sysop's chosen sort field (long name, short
  name, or internal code)
  - Required that sub-boards are now stored/saved in msgs.cnf based on groups
  - Required QWKnet hub sub-board reference dynamic renumbering
* Implemented "Template" toggle option for sub-boards and file directories:
  A sub-board or directory marked as "template" will be used for newly created
  (or imported) subs/dirs for that group/lib. Clone Options via SCFG will now
  use the "template" item as the source of the cloned settings, if available.

also clear the associated counts (sizes) for these arrays, eliminating some
potential crashes while dereferencing these arrays after freeing (e.g. during
shutdown or recycle of sbbs).
