    Avoid delay waiting for key in WIN_DYN mode

    When running Windows 11 in a VirtualBox VM, Sleep(1) appears to take
    much more than 1ms to return. This causes large delays drawing menus
    using WIN_DYN (as SyncTERM does).

    If WIN_DYN is set, just use kbhit() with no delay. Leave the delay
    there for !WIN_DYN though.

    This should generally speed up SyncTERM menu navigation as there
    was a 50ms delay for each menu on the screen.

    Log Message:
    Fix warning.

    While we're here, eliminate some explicit int64_t usage.

    (not sure why uifc_winmode_t is signed since it's a bitfield, but
    that's above my pay grade).

    In screen widths < 80 columns, auto-suppress the date/time display

    The the date/time display would overwrite parts of the application
    title in narrower screen modes, so let's not do that.

    Don't clear exit_flags.

    This should ensure that once quit is used, everything exits, but
    apparently, this never worked.

    Fix dynamically calcluated list height bug when in T2B mode and top val given

    In T2B (top to bottom centering) mode, the 'top' parametr value isn't actually for the top of the window position (later), so just zero it here in case it
    was specified (and non-zero) to correct the calcutation on the next lines:
    ```
    if(top+height>s_bottom)
    height=(s_bottom)-top;
    ```

    Previously, the buffer was fixed to the default colours for the API

    updated to reflect that.

    Don't modify the option list.

    uifc would truncate space and control characters from the end of
    options if the width was being auto-calculated.

    This is a TERRIBLE idea because those are often const data.
    If this is actually needed, it could be a weird strlen thing, but
    it really shouldn't be needed.

    This has been broken since the beginning.
