    Fix the date format selection for wizard mode (cosmetic)

    ... using WIN_FIXEDHEIGHT mode to limit the list height in wizard mode.

    I had a solution using a negative width param value to specify a height limit, but then I saw this code in ulist():
    ```
    if(mode&WIN_FIXEDHEIGHT) {
    height=api->list_height;
    }
    ```

    something Deuce added for SyncTERM and I don't think I've ever used before.
    It works.

    Setting max_getkey_inactivity to 0 does not disable user inactivity detection

    0 or < 1 is not a "sentinel value" for this setting in sbbs; there is no "Unlimited" value for this setting, so don't report it as such in SCFG->System ->Advanced->Maximum User Inactivity. Setting this to 0 would just create a near-immediate user input timeout (and not something a sysop should do).

    This fixes issue #957

    Allow arbitrary numeric and verbal date field separator char configurability

    The wizard no longer includes the ability to change the numeric date field separating character.

    The verbal field separator is configurable only/after the verbal date output
    is selected. This is a little backwards since the example output is displayed in the numeric/verbal selection dialog, but I figured that was better than (always) prompting for a separator character that may not actually ever be used.

    The numeric date format is always displayed in the System config menu now
    (even when verbabl output format is chosen) since users can only *input* dates in numeric format.

    I'm now wanting mouse terminal support to default to "off" rather than "on"
    for new users (basically reversing the default choice from Yes/No to No/Yes)
    in newuser_prompts.js, but now sysops have the option of changing that default here back to On/Yes if they prefer.
