New library-style 'utils' subdirectories. Now that the new CMake build system is encouraging us to lay out the code like a set of libraries, it seems like a good idea to make them look more _like_ libraries, by putting things into separate modules as far as possible. This fixes several previous annoyances in which you had to link against some object in order to get a function you needed, but that object also contained other functions you didn't need which included link-time symbol references you didn't want to have to deal with. The usual offender was subsidiary supporting programs including misc.c for some innocuous function and then finding they had to deal with the requirements of buildinfo(). This big reorganisation introduces three new subdirectories called 'utils', one at the top level and one in each platform subdir. In each case, the directory contains basically the same files that were previously placed in the 'utils' build-time library, except that the ones that were extremely miscellaneous (misc.c, utils.c, uxmisc.c, winmisc.c, winmiscs.c, winutils.c) have been split up into much smaller pieces.

size_t nullseat_output(
seat_output: add an output type for SSH banners. (NFC) The jump host system ought really to be treating SSH authentication banners as a distinct thing from the standard-error session output, so that the former can be presented to the user in the same way as the auth banner for the main session. This change converts the 'bool is_stderr' parameter of seat_output() into an enumerated type with three values. For the moment, stderr and banners are treated the same, but the plan is for that to change.

bool nullseat_eof(Seat *seat) { return true; }
New Seat callback, seat_sent(). This is used to notify the Seat that some data has been cleared from the backend's outgoing data buffer. In other words, it notifies the Seat that it might be worth calling backend_sendbuffer() again. We've never needed this before, because until now, Seats have always been the 'main program' part of the application, meaning they were also in control of the event loop. So they've been able to call backend_sendbuffer() proactively, every time they go round the event loop, instead of having to wait for a callback. But now, the SSH proxy is the first example of a Seat without privileged access to the event loop, so it has no way to find out that the backend's sendbuffer has got smaller. And without that, it can't pass that notification on to plug_sent, to unblock in turn whatever the proxied connection might have been waiting to send. In fact, before this commit, sshproxy.c never called plug_sent at all. As a result, large data uploads over an SSH jump host would hang forever as soon as the outgoing buffer filled up for the first time: the main backend (to which sshproxy.c was acting as a Socket) would carefully stop filling up the buffer, and then never receive the call to plug_sent that would cause it to start again. The new callback is ignored everywhere except in sshproxy.c. It might be a good idea to remove backend_sendbuffer() entirely and convert all previous uses of it into non-empty implementations of this callback, so that we've only got one system; but for the moment, I haven't done that.

void nullseat_sent(Seat *seat, size_t bufsize) {}
Split seat_banner from seat_output. Previously, SSH authentication banners were displayed by calling the ordinary seat_output function, and passing it a special value in the SeatOutputType enumeration indicating an auth banner. The awkwardness of this was already showing a little in SshProxy's implementation of seat_output, where it had to check for that special value and do totally different things for SEAT_OUTPUT_AUTH_BANNER and everything else. Further work in that area is going to make it more and more awkward if I keep the two output systems unified. So let's split them up. Now, Seat has separate output() and banner() methods, which each implementation can override differently if it wants to. All the 'end user' Seat implementations use the centralised implementation function nullseat_banner_to_stderr(), which turns banner text straight back into SEAT_OUTPUT_STDERR and passes it on to seat_output. So I didn't have to tediously implement a boring version of this function in GTK, Windows GUI, consoles, file transfer etc.

Richer data type for interactive prompt results. All the seat functions that request an interactive prompt of some kind to the user - both the main seat_get_userpass_input and the various confirmation dialogs for things like host keys - were using a simple int return value, with the general semantics of 0 = "fail", 1 = "proceed" (and in the case of seat_get_userpass_input, answers to the prompts were provided), and -1 = "request in progress, wait for a callback". In this commit I change all those functions' return types to a new struct called SeatPromptResult, whose primary field is an enum replacing those simple integer values. The main purpose is that the enum has not three but _four_ values: the "fail" result has been split into 'user abort' and 'software abort'. The distinction is that a user abort occurs as a result of an interactive UI action, such as the user clicking 'cancel' in a dialog box or hitting ^D or ^C at a terminal password prompt - and therefore, there's no need to display an error message telling the user that the interactive operation has failed, because the user already knows, because they _did_ it. 'Software abort' is from any other cause, where PuTTY is the first to know there was a problem, and has to tell the user. We already had this 'user abort' vs 'software abort' distinction in other parts of the code - the SSH backend has separate termination functions which protocol layers can call. But we assumed that any failure from an interactive prompt request fell into the 'user abort' category, which is not true. A couple of examples: if you configure a host key fingerprint in your saved session via the SSH > Host keys pane, and the server presents a host key that doesn't match it, then verify_ssh_host_key would report that the user had aborted the connection, and feel no need to tell the user what had gone wrong! Similarly, if a password provided on the command line was not accepted, then (after I fixed the semantics of that in the previous commit) the same wrong handling would occur. So now, those Seat prompt functions too can communicate whether the user or the software originated a connection abort. And in the latter case, we also provide an error message to present to the user. Result: in those two example cases (and others), error messages should no longer go missing. Implementation note: to avoid the hassle of having the error message in a SeatPromptResult being a dynamically allocated string (and hence, every recipient of one must always check whether it's non-NULL and free it on every exit path, plus being careful about copying the struct around), I've instead arranged that the structure contains a function pointer and a couple of parameters, so that the string form of the message can be constructed on demand. That way, the only users who need to free it are the ones who actually _asked_ for it in the first place, which is a much smaller set. (This is one of the rare occasions that I regret not having C++'s extra features available in this code base - a unique_ptr or shared_ptr to a string would have been just the thing here, and the compiler would have done all the hard work for me of remembering where to insert the frees!)

SeatPromptResult nullseat_get_userpass_input(Seat *seat, prompts_t *p)
{ return SPR_SW_ABORT("this seat can't handle interactive prompts"); }
New Seat method, notify_session_started(). This is called by the backend to notify the Seat that the connection has progressed to the point where the main session channel (i.e. the thing that would typically correspond to the client's stdin/stdout) has been successfully set up. The only Seat that implements this method nontrivially is the one in SshProxy, which uses it as an indication that the proxied connection to the remote host has succeeded, and sends the PLUGLOG_CONNECT_SUCCESS notification to its own Plug. Hence, the only backends that need to implement it at the moment are the two SSH-shaped backends (SSH proper and bare-connection / psusan). For other backends, it's not always obvious what 'main session channel' would even mean, or whether it means anything very useful; so I've also introduced a backend flag indicating whether the backend is expecting to call that method at all, so as not to have to spend pointless effort on defining an arbitrary meaning for it in other contexts. So a lot of this patch is just introducing the new method and putting its trivial do-nothing implementation into all the existing Seat methods. The interesting parts happen in ssh/mainchan.c (which actually calls it), and sshproxy.c (which does something useful in response).

void nullseat_notify_remote_exit(Seat *seat) {}
New Seat method, notify_remote_disconnect. This notifies the Seat that the entire backend session has finished and closed its network connection - or rather, that it _might_ have done, and that the frontend should check backend_connected() if it wasn't planning to do so already. The existing Seat implementations haven't needed this: the GUI ones don't actually need to do anything specific when the network connection goes away, and the CLI ones deal with it by being in charge of their own event loop so that they can easily check backend_connected() at every possible opportunity in any case. But I'm about to introduce a new Seat implementation that does need to know this, and doesn't have any other way to get notified of it.

void nullseat_connection_fatal(Seat *seat, const char *message) {}
New Seat method, seat_nonfatal(). This is like the seat-independent nonfatal(), but specifies a Seat, which allows the GUI dialog box to have the right terminal window as its parent (if there are multiple ones). Changed over all the nonfatal() calls in the code base that could be localised to a Seat, which means all the ones that come up if something goes horribly wrong in host key storage. To make that possible, I've added a 'seat' parameter to store_host_key(); it turns out that all its call sites had one available already.

Seat *seat, const char *host, int port, const char *keytype,
Centralise most details of host-key prompting. The text of the host key warnings was replicated in three places: the Windows rc file, the GTK dialog setup function, and the console.c shared between both platforms' CLI tools. Now it lives in just one place, namely ssh/common.c where the rest of the centralised host-key checking is done, so it'll be easier to adjust the wording in future. This comes with some extra automation. Paragraph wrapping is no longer done by hand in any version of these prompts. (Previously we let GTK do the wrapping on GTK, but on Windows the resource file contained a bunch of pre-wrapped LTEXT lines, and console.c had pre-wrapped terminal messages.) And the dialog heights in Windows are determined automatically based on the amount of stuff in the window. The main idea of all this is that it'll be easier to set up more elaborate kinds of host key prompt that deal with certificates (if, e.g., a server sends us a certified host key which we don't trust the CA for). But there are side benefits of this refactoring too: each tool now reliably inserts its own appname in the prompts, and also, on Windows the entire prompt text is copy-pastable. Details of implementation: there's a new type SeatDialogText which holds a set of (type, string) pairs describing the contents of a prompt. Type codes distinguish ordinary text paragraphs, paragraphs to be displayed prominently (like key fingerprints), the extra-bold scary title at the top of the 'host key changed' version of the dialog, and the various information that lives in the subsidiary 'more info' box. ssh/common.c constructs this, and passes it to the Seat to present the actual prompt. In order to deal with the different UI for answering the prompt, I've added an extra Seat method 'prompt_descriptions' which returns some snippets of text to interpolate into the messages. ssh/common.c calls that while it's still constructing the text, and incorporates the resulting snippets into the SeatDialogText. For the moment, this refactoring only affects the host key prompts. The warnings about outmoded crypto are still done the old-fashioned way; they probably ought to be similarly refactored to use this new SeatDialogText system, but it's not immediately critical for the purpose I have right now.

Implementation note: to avoid the hassle of having the error message in a SeatPromptResult being a dynamically allocated string (and hence, every recipient of one must always check whether it's non-NULL and free it on every exit path, plus being careful about copying the struct around), I've instead arranged that the structure contains a function pointer and a couple of parameters, so that the string form of the message can be constructed on demand. That way, the only users who need to free it are the ones who actually _asked_ for it in the first place, which is a much smaller set. (This is one of the rare occasions that I regret not having C++'s extra features available in this code base - a unique_ptr or shared_ptr to a string would have been just the thing here, and the compiler would have done all the hard work for me of remembering where to insert the frees!)

New library-style 'utils' subdirectories. Now that the new CMake build system is encouraging us to lay out the code like a set of libraries, it seems like a good idea to make them look more _like_ libraries, by putting things into separate modules as far as possible. This fixes several previous annoyances in which you had to link against some object in order to get a function you needed, but that object also contained other functions you didn't need which included link-time symbol references you didn't want to have to deal with. The usual offender was subsidiary supporting programs including misc.c for some innocuous function and then finding they had to deal with the requirements of buildinfo(). This big reorganisation introduces three new subdirectories called 'utils', one at the top level and one in each platform subdir. In each case, the directory contains basically the same files that were previously placed in the 'utils' build-time library, except that the ones that were extremely miscellaneous (misc.c, utils.c, uxmisc.c, winmisc.c, winmiscs.c, winutils.c) have been split up into much smaller pieces.

Divide seat_set_trust_status into query and update. This complicates the API in one sense (more separate functions), but in another sense, simplifies it (each function does something simpler). When I start putting one Seat in front of another during SSH proxying, the latter will be more important - in particular, it means you can find out _whether_ a seat can support changing trust status without having to actually attempt a destructive modification.

New Seat query, has_mixed_input_stream(). (TL;DR: to suppress redundant 'Press Return to begin session' prompts in between hops of a jump-host configuration, in Plink.) This new query method directly asks the Seat the question: is the same stream of input used to provide responses to interactive login prompts, and the session input provided after login concludes? It's used to suppress the last-ditch anti-spoofing defence in Plink of interactively asking 'Access granted. Press Return to begin session', on the basis that any such spoofing attack works by confusing the user about what's a legit login prompt before the session begins and what's sent by the server after the main session begins - so if those two things take input from different places, the user can't be confused. This doesn't change the existing behaviour of Plink, which was already suppressing the antispoof prompt in cases where its standard input was redirected from something other than a terminal. But previously it was doing it within the can_set_trust_status() seat query, and I've now moved it out into a separate query function. The reason why these need to be separate is for SshProxy, which needs to give an unusual combination of answers when run inside Plink. For can_set_trust_status(), it needs to return whatever the parent Seat returns, so that all the login prompts for a string of proxy connections in session will be antispoofed the same way. But you only want that final 'Access granted' prompt to happen _once_, after all the proxy connection setup phases are done, because up until then you're still in the safe hands of PuTTY itself presenting an unbroken sequence of legit login prompts (even if they come from a succession of different servers). Hence, SshProxy unconditionally returns 'no' to the query of whether it has a single mixed input stream, because indeed, it never does - for purposes of session input it behaves like an always-redirected Plink, no matter what kind of real Seat it ends up sending its pre-session login prompts to.

Centralise most details of host-key prompting. The text of the host key warnings was replicated in three places: the Windows rc file, the GTK dialog setup function, and the console.c shared between both platforms' CLI tools. Now it lives in just one place, namely ssh/common.c where the rest of the centralised host-key checking is done, so it'll be easier to adjust the wording in future. This comes with some extra automation. Paragraph wrapping is no longer done by hand in any version of these prompts. (Previously we let GTK do the wrapping on GTK, but on Windows the resource file contained a bunch of pre-wrapped LTEXT lines, and console.c had pre-wrapped terminal messages.) And the dialog heights in Windows are determined automatically based on the amount of stuff in the window. The main idea of all this is that it'll be easier to set up more elaborate kinds of host key prompt that deal with certificates (if, e.g., a server sends us a certified host key which we don't trust the CA for). But there are side benefits of this refactoring too: each tool now reliably inserts its own appname in the prompts, and also, on Windows the entire prompt text is copy-pastable. Details of implementation: there's a new type SeatDialogText which holds a set of (type, string) pairs describing the contents of a prompt. Type codes distinguish ordinary text paragraphs, paragraphs to be displayed prominently (like key fingerprints), the extra-bold scary title at the top of the 'host key changed' version of the dialog, and the various information that lives in the subsidiary 'more info' box. ssh/common.c constructs this, and passes it to the Seat to present the actual prompt. In order to deal with the different UI for answering the prompt, I've added an extra Seat method 'prompt_descriptions' which returns some snippets of text to interpolate into the messages. ssh/common.c calls that while it's still constructing the text, and incorporates the resulting snippets into the SeatDialogText. For the moment, this refactoring only affects the host key prompts. The warnings about outmoded crypto are still done the old-fashioned way; they probably ought to be similarly refactored to use this new SeatDialogText system, but it's not immediately critical for the purpose I have right now.

Refactor confirm_weak to use SeatDialogText. This centralises the messages for weak crypto algorithms (general, and host keys in particular, the latter including a list of all the other available host key types) into ssh/common.c, in much the same way as we previously did for ordinary host key warnings. The reason is the same too: I'm about to want to vary the text in one of those dialog boxes, so it's convenient to start by putting it somewhere that I can modify just once.
