Rationalisation of the system of frontend handles. Most modular bits

of PuTTY (terminal, backend, logctx etc) take a `void *' handle
passed to them from the frontend, and used as a context for all
their callbacks. Most of these point at the frontend structure
itself (on platforms where this is meaningful), except that the
handle passed to the backend has always pointed at the terminal
because from_backend() was implemented in terminal.c. This has
finally bitten Unix PuTTY, because both backend and logctx have
been passing their respective and very different frontend handles to
logevent(), so I've fixed it.
from_backend() is now a function supplied by the _frontend_ itself,
in all cases, and the frontend handle passed to backends must be the
same as that passed to everything else. What was from_backend() in
terminal.c is now called term_data(), and the typical implementation
of from_backend() in a GUI frontend will just extract the terminal
handle from the frontend structure and delegate to that.
This appears to work on Unix and Windows, but has most likely broken
the Mac build.
