in question vary per OS: on Windows the problem is that WM_TIMER
sometimes goes off too early, so that GetTickCount() is right and
the callback time is wrong, whereas on Unix the problem is that my
GETTICKCOUNT implementation comes from the system clock which means
it can change suddenly and non-monotonically if the sysadmin is
messing about (meaning that the timing of callbacks from GTK or
select timeouts is _more_ likely to be right than GETTICKCOUNT).
This checkin provides band-aid workarounds for both problems, which
aren't pretty but ought to at least prevent catastrophic assertion
failure.

still only used for the host key popups. Side-effects:
- requested_help is a winstuff.h global
- Pageant now defines winstuff.h globals
(Also, my previous fix to my improved host-key dialogs only got the "changed"
case, not the "unknown" case. Some days I shouldn't be let near a keyboard.)

a separate CWD for the file requester, so that when the Open File box is not
open Pageant should stay where it was started.
(Also some other minor cleanups in this area of Pageant.)

appropriate context help, iff the help file is present. (Shame it's prey to
`winhelp-crash'.)
(I've perpetrated a widening of visibility of `hwnd'; the alternative, putting
it into a frontend handle, seemed too likely to cause maintenance trouble if
we don't also _use_ that frontend handle everywhere we now use the global
`hwnd'.)

* Make sk_getxdmdata() return an arbitrary string rather than two integers.
This better matches the spec, even if the current version always returns
six bytes
* On Unix, for PF_UNIX sockets, return a counter rather than a constant along
with the PID. This should allow multiple clients to connect within one
second, and is what Xlib does.
* On Unix, interpret AF_INET6 addresses like Xlib does, returning the
embedded IPv4 address for v4-mapped addresses, and six bytes of zeroes
otherwise. The latter is silly, but if I'm going to do anything more sane
I need to check that X servers won't reject it.

mid-session if we are not using SSHv1. I've done this by introducing
a generic `cfg_info' function which every back end can use to
communicate an int's worth of data to setup_config_box; in SSH
that's the protocol version in use, and in everything else it's
currently zero.

which pretty much any module can call to request a call-back in the
future. So terminal.c can do its own handling of blinking, visual
bells and deferred screen updates, without having to rely on
term_update() being called 50 times a second (fixes: pterm-timer);
and ssh.c and telnet.c both invoke a new module pinger.c which takes
care of sending keepalives, so they get sent uniformly in all front
ends (fixes: plink-keepalives, unix-keepalives).

long last to move all the Windows-specific source files down into a
`windows' subdirectory. Only platform-specific files remain at the
top level. With any luck this will act as a hint to anyone still
contemplating sending us a Windows-centric patch...
