    Lightbar confirm/deny Baja mods ported to JS, supporting multi-languages

    Really, these should just be loadable modules (not loaded via text.dat
    @exec and global variable magic), and merged into a single module, but for
    now, this will do.

    The old yesnobar.src/bin and noyesbar mods aren't used when these .js files
    are in place, unless you have a copy yesnobar/noyesbar.bin in your mods dir.

    Add support for ^A? sequence in question prompts

    Ctrl-A? is a conditional new-line sequence (often used in prompts).

    This was a feature in yesnobar/noyesbar.bin and missing in this new JS
    port. Oops.

    Log Message:
    Use P_NOABORT mode flag for calls to console.putmsg()

    The Baja PRINT function (used in yesnobar.src/noyesbar.src) calls putmsg()
    with P_SAVEATR|P_NOABORT. Without P_NOABORT, putmsg() doesn't display anything if the global console abort (SS_ABORT) flag is set.

    So hitting 'N' or Ctrl-C at one yes/no or no/yes prompt would mean any immediately subsequent yes/no or no/yes prompt would not be displayed.

    Now that we have to require('sbbsdefs.js') for the P_NOABORT definition, this'll run a little slower. :-(

    Enable/conform to "use strict" mode.
