    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/sbbs.h
    Log Message:
    Thread-safe wrappers for std/socket errno description getters for sbbs_t

    These should only be used in the sbbs_t methods called by node_thread or event_thread. Any other thread-shared sbbs_t instances should not use these methods since they share a single error description string buffer.

    Don't try to include modern C++ headers when building C++ Builder

    C++ Builder6 doesn't have unordered_map, so only #include those std C++
    headers if/where we actually need them.

    Fix gcc/clang build error

    std::atomic's need to be brace-initialized, or else we fail with
    "use of deleted function" errors

    Odd that MSVC built it just fine.

    Name structs to attempt to silence warnings from GCC.

    It seems that GCC is concerned that we can't create a sftp_dirdescriptor_t
    or sftp_filedescriptor_t?

    Make sbbs_t::online and sys_static atomic member variables

    Since sbbs_t::online and sys_status are modified and checked in different threads, they really should've been atomic or at least volatile to prevent
    the compiler-optimizer from using the current/updated values at all times.
