7983d2dd28 Disable username switching between SSH2 auth attempts, and add a
configurable option so users can re-enable the feature _if_ they
know they have an SSH2 server that isn't going to get shirty about
it. Inspired by a spectacular increase in OpenSSH's shirtiness.

e5764eb695 Add help support to Pageant. (For the primary - non-context - help,
we just invoke the same help file and jump to the Pageant chapter.
It would be nice to be able to bring up the contents box with the
Pageant chapter expanded, but I don't think WinHelp() allows us to
request this.)

fc2a4f845d Documentation: filled the last few gaps and cleaned a few things up.
PuTTY now has a complete manual. Stylistic review, content review
and indexing are yet to do, but at least there's some plausible text
in every section now.

lunchtime's work :-)

7e0ef0b253 Further documentation work. Tidy up the Config chapter (add a few
new features - the code had got ahead of the docs), and propagate a
couple of cross-references to other files as a result.

fe943dcd68 Add a new chapter full of intermediate-useful-things, somewhere
between `Getting Started' (things we can barely believe you don't
know) and the Configuration reference chapter (things you already
knew and had just forgotten). Only half-written at the moment.

17f54e4c3d Editorial policy change: I've decided that it's better to use \q
than \e when describing button names and menu items: the "Foo"
button rather than the _Foo_ button. Certainly consistent use of
either is better than the mixed use of both we had before :-)

774a173451 Make use of the new section-relabelling in Buttress to arrange for
all the FAQ questions to be cross-referenced as `question A.1.2'
instead of `section A.1.2'.

bc7203bc3a Make it clear that you can't save a hostname into Default Settings,
and also make it clear why not and what you should do instead.

89b429e9d9 Add a rant to the FAQ about host key checking. I'm _sick_ of people
implementing a command line option to disable it and expecting us to
cheerfully accept the patch.
