    src/sbbs3/logon.cpp
    Log Message:
    Do rollover daily stats (dsts.ini) if the previous date was Jan-1-1970 (never)

    Basically revert commit 2064f3a4f71c6656693a1d24fc63004c3c41aaea

    In a new install, the "Date" value in dsts.ini will be 0/Never and thus would never be rolled over (e.g. stats moved o csts.tab files).

    Since getstats() now reliably detects any read failures, we shouldn't need
    this as a work-around any more anyway - if the "date" field is 0, it just
    means a new install and it's expected.

    This should fix the issue reported by Basis where the ctrl/csts.tab and node*/csts.tab files were never created in fresh install of v3.20. A work around is to just set the Date field in the ctrl/dsts.ini file to the current date (one time).

    Log Message:
    Better error reporting in logonstats()

    Eastside75 (THUNDER) is reporting that their daily statistics (ctrl/dsts.ini) file is never "rolled-over" and there are only a couple of potential errors
    in this function that could "silently fail" if the current date/time or the "Date" value in the dsts.ini file could not be converted to a broken-down date/time. So if either of those errors happen, log an error. It's unknown
    what the cause of Eastside75's issue is, but I wanted to at least eliminate these 2 possible errors (failures in calls to localtime_r()) as potential causes.

    Also, cleaned up a little using new dates_are_same() function, etc.

    Modified Files:

    Log Message:
    A blank ReadYourMailNowQ text.dat string will not defeat the Unread mail prompt

    I sbbs_t::noyes() will return true if this string is blank, so we didn't need check here now anyway.

    Setting ReadYourMailNowQ in text.dat to an empty string means this prompt
    won't be shown and the read messages will *not* be shown during logon.

    Setting ReadYourUnreadMailNowQ in text.dat to an empty string means this
    prompt won't be shown and any unread messages *will* be shown during logon (automatically).

    If user manually enabled ANSI term but logs-in with PETSCII, enbable autoterm

    <@Deuce> DigitalMan, connecting to cvs.synchronet port 64 in C64 mode, I'm getting ANSI and CP437 after login.
    <@Deuce> But it's properly PETSCII until then.

    We supported the opposite scenario (manually enabled PETSCII), but not both
    of them.

    Log Message:
    What appears to be a more complete fix for auto vs manual terminal adjustment

    ... during logon.

    Previously, we really only handled toggling between PETSCII and ANSI/CP437 but didn't really handle toggling between a UTF-8 and non-UTF-8 terminals. That's now handled here too.

    Log Message:
    Prompt for user's gender and birthdate if required by sysop, but invalid/blank

    Copied pretty much verbatim from the old newuser.cpp logic that now resides
    in newuser_prompts.js. So this should probably be replaced with a loadable module at some point (too).
