    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/ed8c30dabfca6158b3e9207a
    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/exec.cpp
    Log Message:
    Don't call JS_GC() after js.exec() until new background threads exit

    Hopefully this will fix the occasional crash in the testsuites
    (and presumably, occasional crash in other things that use background
    threads with js.exec(), if there are any).

    The same trick used in select_editor()

    Log Message:
    sbbs_t::select_editor() now returns true when quit/aborted by user

    and only returns false if there were no external editors available to the
    user.

    Desired behavior by newuser_info.js so we don't print the message "Sorry, no external editors are available to you" just because the user aborted.

    Modified Files:

    Log Message:
    Don' t log "Attempt to recursively execute" error for some modules

    Some loadable modules will fallback to internal functions if the module fails to execute - we track that with the optional 'invoked' parameter. Only log an error when exec_mod() is called recursively for the same module when the invoked parameter is null, otherwise just fail (return -1) silently so that the calling function can revert to built-in functions. It should be obvious that's what is happening since the built-in functionality would execute and no
    (e.g. debug-level) log message should be needed.

    Log Message:
    Fix the bbs.select_shell() and select_editor() ARS checking/application

    Commit 9d7ada16df7e9f didn't really work because the user pointer we get
    from the User private data doesn't necessarily match the sbbs_t::useron, though it is the same user (the way user_settings.js works today).

    So users were seeing *all* editors and command shells when selecting from user_settings.js, even those they weren't supposed to have access to per ARS.
