and add the ability to treat a local disconnection as "unclean" -- notably, if we can't agree any authentication methods to even try; someone was complaining that the PuTTY window by default just disappears for no apparent reason in this circumstance. Also, use appropriate disconnect codes for those SSH2_MSG_DISCONNECT messages that we do send. I don't think I've seriously broken any user-visible behaviour, but the way that connection-close distinctions are transmitted to the front-end is shaky (or so it seems to me), so there may be non-ideal changes on some platforms.

PuTTY README
============
This is the README file for the PuTTY installer distribution. If
you're reading this, you've probably just run our installer and
installed PuTTY on your system.
What should I do next?
----------------------
If you want to use PuTTY to connect to other computers, or use PSFTP
to transfer files, you should just be able to run them from the
Start menu.
If you want to use the command-line-only file transfer utility PSCP,
you will probably want to put the PuTTY installation directory on
your PATH. How you do this depends on your version of Windows. On
Windows NT and 2000, you can set it using Control Panel > System; on
Windows 95 you will need to edit AUTOEXEC.BAT. Consult your Windows
manuals for details.
What do I do if it doesn't work?
