    Log Message:
    Use non-blocking connect for telnet/rlogin gateway

    Default connect timeout is now 10 (seconds), and can be overridden by passing an additional number argument to bbs.telnet_gate() or bbs.rlogin_gate().

    Addresses issue #314 by Nelgin.

    Log Message:
    [telnet|rlogin]_gate now returns bool (false if failed to connect)

    Previously, there was no real way to tell if the call to telnet_gate() or rlogin_gate() was successful (e.g. to display or an error message to the user), though there were error/warning messages logged for the sysop. Equivalent JS bbs object methods now return Boolean too.

    Include ":port" part of address argument to bbs.[telnet|rlogin]_gate methods in JSDOCS.

    Removed a bunch of extraneous (copy-pasted?) JS_SET_RVAL() calls from js_bbs.cpp. This just makes the code a little easier to grok.
