Now we have licence.pl, it seems to me to make very good sense to have
it generate the Halibut form(s) of the licence and copyright year as
well as the source-code forms.
As a result, I believe _no_ copies of the licence text or copyright
date exist any more except for the master one in LICENCE - so I can
completely remove the checklist section about all the places to update
it, because there's only one. Hooray!

Now all the uses of the licence text or the short copyright notice get
it from a new header "licence.h", which in turn is built by a Perl
script licence.pl invoked by mkfiles.pl, using LICENCE itself as the
source.
Hence, I can completely remove a whole section from the list of
licence locations in CHECKLST.txt :-)

This makes the About and Licence boxes copy-and-pasteable, similarly
to what I've just done on Unix.
(But unlike on the Unix side, here I haven't touched the host key
prompt dialog, because that's a standard Windows MessageBox and not
easy to mess around with. Plus, in any case, you can already hit ^C to
copy the whole text out of a MessageBox. Same goes for the PGP
fingerprints dialog.)
As a side effect, several copies of the copyright notice and licence
text have moved from .rc files into C source. I've updated
CHECKLST.txt, but they won't stay there for long.

I've made the licence text, the About box, and the host key dialog

Or, at least, potentially do so. The build script now has a slot into
which code-signing can be dropped by setting a variable in the bob
configuration to specify an appropriate command line.
The variable will typically need to point at a script wrapping the
actual signing tool, since there are lots of fiddly details
(timestamping countersignature, certificate, private key, etc) not
given on the command lines in this build script, on the basis that
they're local configuration questions for whoever is _running_ this
build script.

Half the release checklist has changed recently, what with me
completely reworking the website and also writing all this release
automation. I think these are all the checklist changes needed now the
dust has settled, though of course when I do the next actual release I
expect there'll turn out to be something I missed...

I've added extra modes to release.pl which should automate the more
tedious parts of the deployment phase: uploading the release build to
all the places it needs to go, checking its integrity once it gets
there, verifying that everything can be downloaded again usefully,
checking content-types etc.
The new version should check more thoroughly (it checks the whole FTP
and HTTP download directories, so it will spot errors like failing to
update the FTP 'latest' symlink), and take fewer commands to run.

The length coming back from ber_read_id_len might have overflowed, so
treat it as potentially negative. Also, while I'm here, accumulate it
inside ber_read_id_len as an unsigned, so as to avoid undefined
behaviour on integer overflow, and toint() it before return.

TOOLTYPE_NONNETWORK (i.e. pterm) already has "-log" (as does Unix
PuTTY), so there's no sense suppressing the synonym "-sessionlog".
Undocumented lacunae that remain:
plink accepts -sessionlog, but does nothing with it. Arguably it should.
puttytel accepts -sshlog/-sshrawlog (and happily logs e.g. Telnet
negotiation, as does PuTTY proper).

all the various places it needs to be done and also ensures the PSCP
and Plink transcripts in the docs will match the release itself.

also checking the same thing about the marginally newer .CHM ones. (Or

check on at least one occasion.)

Handles managed by winhandl.c have a 'busy' flag, which is used to
mean two things: (a) is a subthread currently blocked on this handle
so various operations in the main thread have to be deferred until it
finishes? And (b) is this handle currently one that should be returned
to the main loop to be waited for?
For HT_INPUT and HT_OUTPUT, those things are either both true or both
false, so a single flag covering both of them is fine. But HT_FOREIGN
handles have the property that they should always be waited for in the
main loop, but no subthread is blocked on them. The latter means that
operations done on them in the main thread should not be deferred; the
only such operation is cleaning them up in handle_free().
handle_free() was failing to spot this, and was deferring freeing
HT_FOREIGN handles until their subthread terminated - which of course
never happened. As a result, when a named pipe server was closed, its
actual Windows event object got destroyed, but winhandl.c still kept
passing it back to the main thread, leading to a tight loop because
MsgWaitForMultipleObjects would return ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE and never
block.

This is a minimal fix for CVE-2015-5309, and while it's probably
unnecessary now, it seems worth committing for defence in depth and to
give downstreams something reasonably non-intrusive to cherry-pick.
Parameters are now accumulated in unsigned integers and carefully checked
for overflow (which is turned into saturation). Things that consume them
now have explicit range checks (again, saturating) to ensure that their
inputs are sane. This should make it much harder to cause overflow by
supplying ludicrously large numbers.
Fixes two bugs found with the help of afl-fuzz. One of them may be
exploitable and is CVE-2015-5309.
The previous assertion failure is obviously wrong, but RFC 4253 doesn't
explicitly declare them to be a protocol error. Currently, the incoming
packet isn't logged, which might cause some confusion for log parsers.
Bug found with the help of afl-fuzz.
It's not used outside logfopen, and leaving an infalid file pointer
lying around in the log context caused a segfault if the user
cancelled logging.
Bug found by afl-fuzz before it had even started fuzzing.
On Windows, colons are illegal in filenames, because they're part of
the path syntax. But colons can appear in automatically constructed
log file names, if an IPv6 address is expanded from the &H placeholder.
Now we coerce any such illegal characters to '.', which is a bit of a
bodge but should at least cause a log file to be generated.

A user points out that logging fopen failures to the Event Log is a
bit obscure, and it's possible to proceed for months in the assumption
that your sessions are being correctly logged when in fact the
partition was full or you were aiming them at the wrong directory. Now
we produce output visibly in the PuTTY window.

Log files, especially SSH packet logs, are often things you want to
generate in unusual circumstances, so it's good to have lots of ways
to ask for them. Particularly, it's especially painful to have to set
up a custom saved session to get diagnostics out of the command-line
tools.
I've added options '-sessionlog', '-sshlog' and '-sshrawlog', each of
which takes a filename argument. I think the fourth option (session
output but filtered down to the printable subset) is not really a
_debugging_ log in the same sense, so it's not as critical to have an
option for it.
(cherry picked from commit 13edf90e0a4397088085cfcd53a4311319b708b4)
Plink sets standard input into nonblocking mode, meaning that read()
from fd 0 in an interactive context will typically return -1 EAGAIN.
But the prompt functions in uxcons.c, used for verifying SSH host keys
and suchlike, were doing an unguarded read() from fd 0, and then
panicking and aborting the session when they got EAGAIN.
Fixed by inventing a wrapper around read(2) which handles EAGAIN but
passes all other errors back to the caller. (Seemed slightly less
dangerous than the stateful alternative of temporarily re-blockifying
the file descriptor.)

Cherry-picker's notes: the conflict was a trivial one. The new
function block_and_read() by this commit appears just before
verify_ssh_host_key(), which has a new prototype on the source branch,
close enough to disrupt the patch hunk's context. Easily fixed.
The build script generates the .htaccess files that go in each
individual build and redirect generic names like 'putty.tar.gz' to the
real filenames including that build's version number. Those .htaccess
files redirect the corresponding signatures as well, so they need
updating now that we're generating signature files with a different
extension.

Profiling reveals that pterm in Pango rendering mode uses an absurd
amount of CPU when it's not even actually _drawing_ the text, because
of all the calls to pango_layout_get_pixel_extents() while
pangofont_draw_text tries to work out which characters it can safely
draw as part of a long string. Caching the results speeds things up
greatly.
