to consult cfg.logxfovr, because it gets done once in logging.c.
askappend() is now called only when a question _really_ needs to be
asked of the user. Also in this checkin, cleanup_exit() in console.c
no longer consults cfg.protocol to decide whether to save the random
seed, because random_save_seed() can make that decision for itself
and do it better.

absent, and also (I think) all the frontend request functions (such
as request_resize) take a context pointer, so that multiple windows

of scp.c, psftp.c and plink.c into it. Additionally, add `batch
mode', in which all the interactive prompts (bad host key, log file
exists, insecure cipher, password prompt) are disabled and safe
responses are assumed. (The idea being that if you run PSCP, for
example, in a cron job then you'd probably rather it failed and
exited instead of leaving the cron job wedged while it waits for
user input that will never arrive.)
