(which will gain more content anon).
Retire BUG_SSH2_DH_GEX and add a backwards-compatibility wart, since we never
did find a way of automatically detecting this alleged server bug, and in any

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...
