members of Windows SockAddr_tag; particular in sk_nonamelookup() (proxy
resolution at far end) this was causing trouble.
Make sure they _always_ start out NULL (since the Windows getaddrinfo()
documentation doesn't make any claims about initialisation), and also
initialise 'naddresses' in sk_nonamelookup() for good measure.

on a local port), the `Auto' protocol option on the Tunnels panel
should always produce a port you can connect to in _either_ of IPv4
and v6, because the aim is for the user not to have to know or care
which one they're using. This was not the case on Windows, and now
is. Also, updated the docs to give more detail on issues like this.

of polishing to bring them to what I think should in principle be
release quality. Unlike the unfix.org patches themselves, this
checkin enables IPv6 by default; if you want to leave it out, you
have to build with COMPAT=-DNO_IPV6.
I have tested that this compiles on Visual C 7 (so the nightlies
_should_ acquire IPv6 support without missing a beat), but since I
don't have IPv6 set up myself I haven't actually tested that it
_works_. It still seems to make correct IPv4 connections, but that's
all I've been able to verify for myself. Further testing is needed.

which pretty much any module can call to request a call-back in the
future. So terminal.c can do its own handling of blinking, visual
bells and deferred screen updates, without having to rely on
term_update() being called 50 times a second (fixes: pterm-timer);
and ssh.c and telnet.c both invoke a new module pinger.c which takes
care of sending keepalives, so they get sent uniformly in all front
ends (fixes: plink-keepalives, unix-keepalives).

long last to move all the Windows-specific source files down into a
`windows' subdirectory. Only platform-specific files remain at the
top level. With any luck this will act as a hint to anyone still
contemplating sending us a Windows-centric patch...
