    Updated Forwarded and ForwardedFrom text.dat lines.

    User number is not always relevant (e.g. could be #0) when sending
    netmail, so don't show that. And the CRLF at in the Forwarded string
    appears extraneous.

    Log Message:
    Display more of the user's password

    Reversed the order of the pwmod date and the password itself.
    The number of chars of the user's password displayed depends on the
    terminal width. e.g. on an 80 column terminal, 18 chars will be
    displayed. If the user's password is longer than what can be displayed,
    this is indicated with a trailing "..". Wider displays (e.g. 132 column)
    can display all 40 chars of a user's password.

    This fixes issue #442

    When passwords aren't displayed (due to sysop configuration), show
    "<hidden>" instead of "XXXXXXXX" to make that more clear.

    Add InactivityAlert, clear out NodeActionMultiChat

    The InactivityAlert string is sent as a warning before disconnect when a visible alert (AreYouThere) shouldn't be sent. Defaults to 3 beeps.

    Remove the content of the NodeActionMultiChat (over-rides the hard-coded default node status) - weird that this was the only node status that reported the user's security level in the default configuration. This has been this
    way since sbbs v2.30, at least. I think it was to be sure that others could
    see the age/gender of those they were chatting with. But we have other methods of reporting that in node status now, so we don't need to use this override string to accomplish that.
