20f433efac Add a configuration option for TCP keepalives (SO_KEEPALIVE), default off.
No very good reason, but I've occasionally wanted to frob it to see if it
makes any difference to problems I'm having, and it was easy.

Tested that it does actually cause keepalives on Windows (with tcpdump);
should also work on Unix. Not implemented on Mac (does nothing), but then
neither is TCP_NODELAY.

Quite a big checkin, much of which is adding `keepalive' alongside `nodelay'
in network function calls.

f5a7d348cd Halibut now warns about code paragraph lines which are too long to
fit in the text output format. If only to stop myself getting
pestered with cron stderr messages every night, here are some
changes that remove over-long code lines from the PuTTY manual.

d18cd16ca1 A user at ARM just found his home directory was _world_ writable,
and this caused public key authentication to fail in spite of
following our instructions to the letter. It can't hurt to
s/g-w/go-w/ here, just in case!

3867e5956e In SSH, we now send terminal speeds to the server when requesting a pty
(we didn't before) - `ssh-termspeed'.
In the process, I've removed the individual controls on the Telnet and
Rlogin panels and replaced them with one on the Connection panel (since they
were backed by the same storage anyway).
The terminal speeds sent in SSH are logged in the Event Log.
