attempt to load WS2 and then fall back to WS1 if that fails. This
should allow us to use WS2-specific functionality to find out the
local system's list of IP addresses, thus fixing winnet-if2lo, while
degrading gracefully back to the previous behaviour if that
functionality is unavailable. (I haven't yet actually done this; I've
just laid the groundwork.)
This checkin _may_ cause instability; it seemed fine to me on
initial testing, but it's a bit of an upheaval and I wouldn't like
to make bets on it just yet.

platform-independent source file. Haven't yet added the extra
abstraction routines to uxsftp.c to create a Unix PSCP port, but it
shouldn't take long.
Also in this checkin, a change of semantics in platform_default_s():
now strings returned from it are expected to be dynamically allocated.

apparently tries less hard to find printers so won't slow the system down.
Tested on 2000 and 98; in both cases printer enumeration and printing worked
as well as they did in 2003-08-21.
Made a single shared copy of osVersion in winmisc.c so that printing.c can
find it. Made other users (window.c, pageant.c) use this copy.

opaque to all platform-independent modules and only handled within
per-platform code. `Filename' is there because the Mac has a magic
way to store filenames (though currently this checkin doesn't
support it!); `FontSpec' is there so that all the auxiliary stuff
such as font height and charset and so on which is needed under
Windows but not Unix can be kept where it belongs, and so that I can
have a hope in hell of dealing with a font chooser in the forthcoming
cross-platform config box code, and best of all it gets the horrid
font height wart out of settings.c and into the Windows code where
it should be.
The Mac part of this checkin is a bunch of random guesses which will
probably not quite compile, but which look roughly right to me.
Sorry if I screwed it up, Ben :-)

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.)
