   Log Message:   
   Add K_LINEWRAP getstr() mode flag, rename K_WRAP to K_WORDWRAP   
      
   For 10 years (commit e212e2c5fe9), sbbs_t/console.getstr() has limited length   
   of string input to the available columns of the terminal.   
      
   To fix issue #869, rather than change getstr()'s default behavior, add a new   
   mode flag: K_LINEWRAP which does not limit the string length input based on   
   the terminal width (and the current column) (e.g. for use with ;string   
   commands from the default command shell).   
      
   Ideally, I'd like to have a marquee-style option (K_mode flag) where longer   
   strings just side-scroll to accommodate strings longer than the terminal   
   width, but in the mean-time, this'll do.   
      
   So anywhere we think a narrow (e.g. 40 column) terminal is being excessively   
   restricted in string input width and starting the input in the first column   
   is not an option/solution, adding the K_LINEWRAP flag to the getstr() call is   
   the proposed solution.
