    Modified Files:
    exec/login.js
    Log Message:
    Restore stealth legacy login prompt (NN:)

    This old prompt used to be sent for any login scripts (e.g. QWKnet
    via dial-up) that would key off that WWIV-like "name or number"
    (NN:) prompt, but was removed (accidentally?) in commit fedabb0b8f6dfcdc4.

    Send "NN: " and "PW: " (include the trailing space, just in case), and use carriage return to move back (and overwrite) rather than 4 backspaces.

    Modified Files:
    exec/login.js
    Log Message:
    The bare CR is treated as CRLF on PETSCII, so use Ctrl-A[ instead

    We don't do output translation for PETSCII terminals for CR or LF
    chars, so this trick is needed, at least currently, for the NN legacy prompt
    to be properly over-written/invisible for CBM/PETSCII terminals.

    Use the new (to v3.20) method of checking for login-by-usernumber support

    The old NM_NO_NUM flag is unused/deprecated.

    Modified Files:
    exec/login.js
    Log Message:
    Apply inactive_hangup option (for dumb terminals) using max_socket_inactivity

    this insures that inactive dumb (bot) connections will be disconnected even when using a script (e.g. animated pause prompt) that doesn't time-out.

    Also, if the connected node is the last node (for this sbbs instance), divide the socket inactivity timeout value in half.

    These changes (along with sbbs v3.20) should help with DOS (denial-of-service, not MS-DOS) prevention.

    Mainly for Krueger.

    Modified Files:
    exec/login.js
    Log Message:
    Enable "use strict" mode in this script - best practice

    Requires hex literals for control chars instead of octal
    (e.g. \x01 instead of \1)

    All stock scripts should be using strict mode, so this was a miss.

    Modified Files:
    exec/login.js
    Log Message:
    Only call the re-login support functions if re-logging-in

    These functions were causing enumeration issues with JSDOC builds (before the recent refactor that fixes that enumertion order problem), but
    really these calls should've been conditional anyway.
