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.

sk_new() on invocation; these functions become responsible for (eventually)
freeing it. The caller must not do anything with 'addr' after it's been passed
in. (Ick.)
Why:
A SOCKS5 crash appears to have been caused by overzealous freeing of
a SockAddr (ssh.c:1.257 [r2492]), which for proxied connections is
squirreled away long-term (and this can't easily be avoided).
It would have been nice to make a copy of the SockAddr, in case the caller has
a use for it, but one of the implementations (uxnet.c) hides a "struct
addrinfo" in there, and we have no defined way to duplicate those. (None of the
current callers _do_ have a further use for the SockAddr.)
As far as I can tell, everything _except_ proxying only needs addr for the
duration of the call, so sk_addr_free()s immediately. If I'm mistaken, it
should at least be easier to find the offending free()...

ptrs and ints of different size and -Werror makes this serious).
The GTK bits are done by Colin's patch to use GINT_TO_POINTER
(thanks); the uxnet bits are done by cleaning up the rest of the
code. In particular, network.h now typedefs `OSSocket' to be a type
capable of holding whatever the OS's socket data type is that
underlies our socket abstraction. Individual platforms can make this
typedef themselves if they define OSSOCKET_DEFINED to prevent
network.h redoing it; so the Unix OSSocket is now int. Default is
still void *, so other platforms should be unaffected.

proxy-indirection network functions (name_lookup, new_connection,
new_listener) takes a `const Config *' as an argument, and extracts
enough information from it before returning to handle that
particular network operation in accordance with the proxy settings
it specifies. This involved {win,ux}net.c due to a `const'
repercussion.

Windows and Mac backends have acquired auth-finding functions which
do nothing; Unix backend has acquired one which actually works, so
Plink can now do X forwarding believably.
(This checkin stretches into some unlikely parts of the code because
there have been one or two knock-on effects involving `const'. Bah.)

SockAddr, which just contains an unresolved hostname and is created
by a stub function in *net.c. It's an error to pass this to most of
the real-meat functions in *net.c; these fake addresses should have
been dealt with by the time they get down that far. proxy.c now
contains name_lookup(), a wrapper on sk_namelookup() which decides
whether or not to do real DNS, and the individual proxy
implementations each deal sensibly with being handed an unresolved
address and avoid ever passing one down to *net.c.

well, though it's a lot less useful since you still can't bind to
low-numbered ports of odd loopback IPs. Should work in principle for
SSH2 remote forwardings as well as local ones, but OpenSSH seems
unwilling to cooperate.

source files in which it's no longer required (it was previously
required in anything that included <putty.h>, but not any more).
Also moved a couple of stray bits of exposed WinSock back into
winnet.c (getservbyname from ssh.c and AF_INET from proxy.c).

CONNECT, but contains an extensible framework to allow other
proxies. Apparently SOCKS and ad-hoc-telnet-proxy are already
planned (the GUI mentions them already even though they don't work
yet). GUI includes full configurability and allows definition of
exclusion zones. Rock and roll.

Specifically, we explicitly closesocket() all open sockets, which
appears to be necessary since otherwise Windows sends RST rather
than FIN. I'm _sure_ that's a Windows bug, but there we go.

done properly (by binding to INADDR_LOOPBACK) instead of hackishly
(by binding to INADDR_ANY, looking at the peer address when a
connection is accepted, and slamming the connection shut at that
point).

by ceasing to listen on input channels if the corresponding output
channel isn't accepting data. Has had basic check-I-didn't-actually-
break-anything-too-badly testing, but hasn't been genuinely tested
in stress conditions (because concocting stress conditions is non-
trivial).

Only currently works on SSH1; SSH2 should be doable but it's late
and I have other things to do tonight. The Cool Guy award for this
one goes to Nicolas Barry, for doing most of the work and actually
understanding the code he was adding to.

version allows you to specify, per socket, which sockets receive OOB
data in-line (so that you know what was before the mark and what was
after) and which receive it out of line (so it's really a one-byte
out-of-band facility rather than discard-to-mark). This reflects the
fact that rlogin appears to make more sense in the latter mode, and
telnet in the former. This patch makes rlogin work right for me.

routine, which can decide just how fatal the problem really is.

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.
