    Fix issue with default connection settings on Windows

    Apparently, strnicmp() will return a non-zero value when comparing
    zero bytes.

    Some more strnicmp() paranoia

    Avoid subtle platform differences in strnicmp()

    Fix apparent mem leaks in iniRemoveSections()

    Found during code review:
    - strListPop() doesn't free the popped item, needs to be freed
    - could return (on error) without freeing the list of sections

    Log Message:
    Key names for string literals may contain C-escape sequences now

    This allows us to include control characters in the key names, so we can support this in text.ini [substr]:
    \1g: \1m

    Modified Files:

    Log Message:
    For an empty file, return an empty list.

    Returning NULL causes SyncTERM to report a failure decrypting the
    list.

    Fixes ticket 225
    Actually found due to PhotonTERM triggering it for me when I tested
    that.

    This is actually where PhotonTERM is broken.

    Log Message:
    Fix inverted include_dupes check in ini_get_section_list()

    The list-based variant used (include_dupes && ...) to skip duplicates,
    which is inverted Ä it filters when it should include and vice versa.
    The file-based variant ini_read_section_list() correctly uses
    (!include_dupes && ...). Bug introduced in 7046272ee4 when the
    include_dupes parameter was added.
