    Log Message:
    This "!CLIENT IP NOT LIST in /path/to/rlogin.cfg" message is weird

    This message can be logged when a sysop is prompted for the system password and enters it incorrectly or just disconnects.

    So lower the log level to DEBUG. And include the IP address that we searched for too.

    Log Message:
    Change ANSI-color to black on black to obscure garbage in term-detect sequence

    Pretty up the initial connection for non UTF-8 ANSI terminals, at least.

    Also removed what looks like an extraneous underscore after the return to normal ANSI attribute (CSI 0m) sequence - I'm not sure. It's been there since Synchronet v2 so it's possible that some terminal needed it for some reason
    but that reason has been lost to time (maybe WIP/DCTerm detection?).

    Fixes issue #996

    Log Message:
    Fix potential deadlock in specific case

    If the telnet client sends an IP address as a Location, and that
    IP address is in a filter file, the input thread mutex would not
    be unlocked.

    This oddball feature was suggested on Reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/synchronet/comments/khuyey/ftelnetwebsocketservicejs/

    And implemented in Synchronet here: https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/2bbe824c0656176d0314f2d48558b322a69b9e32

    It appears that it's been broken the whole time.

    Found by some LLM (ChatGPT?) and reported by nelgin.

    Log Message:
    Don't execute login module if user already disconnected

    which might log the (new) error message: Error -1 executing login module

    Users can easily disconnect before the login module is executed (e.g. during
    a pause prompt while displaying text/answer.*).

    We still might need more disconnection detection in login.js or lower the severity of the logged error if login.js still gets auto-terminated due to disconnection (which results in a -1 exit code if ungracefully terminated).
