briefly worried that it might not be doing what I thought it was
doing, but examining these diagnostics shows that it is after all, and
now I've written them it would be a shame not to keep them for future
use.

calling random_byte has previously called random_ref.
(I'm not aware of any current code getting this wrong! It just seems
to me to be the sort of thing you'd want to be really sure of.)

First, make absolute times unsigned. This means that it's safe to
depend on their overflow behaviour (which is undefined for signed
integers). This requires a little extra care in handling comparisons,
but I think I've correctly adjusted them all.
Second, functions registered with schedule_timer() are guaranteed to be
called with precisely the time that was returned by schedule_timer().
Thus, it's only necessary to check these values for equality rather than
doing risky range checks, so do that.
The timing code still does lots that's undefined, unnecessary, or just
wrong, but this is a good start.

timing.c, and hence takes its own responsibility for calling
noise_regular() at regular intervals. Again, this means it will be
called consistently in _all_ the SSH-speaking tools, not just those
in which I remembered to call it!

malloc functions, which automatically cast to the same type they're
allocating the size of. Should prevent any future errors involving
mallocing the size of the wrong structure type, and will also make
life easier if we ever need to turn the PuTTY core code from real C
into C++-friendly C. I haven't touched the Mac frontend in this
checkin because I couldn't compile or test it.

Specifically, we explicitly closesocket() all open sockets, which
appears to be necessary since otherwise Windows sends RST rather
than FIN. I'm _sure_ that's a Windows bug, but there we go.

features (prompt for passphrase twice, prompt before overwriting a
file, check the key file was actually saved OK), testing of the
generated keys to make sure I got the file format right, and support
for a variable key size. I think what's already here is basically
sound though.
