introduce another layer of abstraction in SSH2 ciphers, such that a
single `logical cipher' (as desired by a user) can equate to more
than one `physical cipher'. This is because AES comes in several key
lengths (PuTTY will pick the highest supported by the remote end)
and several different SSH2-protocol-level names (aes*-cbc,
rijndael*-cbc, and an unofficial one rijndael-cbc@lysator.liu.se).

- wording change (required a patch to winctrls.c:radioline())
- `only on clean exit' is used when an old-style config says `yes',
on the grounds that it's more generally useful than `always' and
also we want to map the old default to the new default.

multiple switchable line disciplines, we now have a single unified
one which changes its behaviour based on option settings. Each
option setting can be suggested by the back end and/or the terminal
handler, and can be forcibly overridden by the configuration. Local
echo and local line editing are separate, independently switchable,
options.

smalloc() macros and thence to the safemalloc() functions in misc.c.
This should allow me to plug in a debugging allocator and track
memory leaks and segfaults and things.

disablement option into two options so the app cursor keys and app
keypad can be controlled separately. The Pedantic Software Award in
this case goes to the Midnight Commander for its egregious failure
to just use the terminal in Perfectly Normal mode.

advantages:
- protocol modules can call sk_write() without having to worry
about writes blocking, because blocking writes are handled in the
abstraction layer and retried later.
- `Lost connection while sending' is a thing of the past.
- <winsock.h> is no longer needed in most modules, because
"putty.h" doesn't have to declare `SOCKET' variables any more,
only the abstracted `Socket' type.
- select()-equivalent between multiple sockets will now be handled
sensibly, which opens the way for things like SSH port
forwarding.

- Robert de Bath's Compose key is now off by default and configurable on
- The ages-old controversy over whether ALT by itself should bring the
System menu up is now controllable by a config option
- You can now independently configure whether scrollback resets on a
keypress _and_ whether it resets on screen activity.

use when they have data from the network. Replaces the utterly daft
inbuf / inbuf_head / term_out() interface, which only made sense
when feeding to terminal.c. (terminal.c now implements
from_backend() as a small function that gateways to the old
interface.)
As a side effect, from_backend() also has an `is_stderr' parameter,
so scp can once again separate the server's pronouncements on stderr
from the actual protocol progress on stdout.
[originally from svn r729]
- cope with strange WinSock wrappers not supporting SIOCATMARK
- define yet more terminal compatibility modes
- support UK-ASCII (just like US-ASCII but # is a sterling sign)
- support connection keepalives at a configurable interval

windlg.c into it. Allows plink and pscp to no longer link with
windlg.c, meaning they lose some of the sillier stub functions and
also can provide a console-based form of verify_ssh_host_key().
