    src/sbbs3/js_console.cpp
    Log Message:
    Parse console.inkey() timeout parameter as an *unsigned* integer

    A negative timeout value doesn't make sense and this will extend the legal (positive) range of this parameter value.

    Hopefully this will help eliminate these errors I get often:
    dd_lightbar_menu.js line 4041: Error: can't convert inputTimeoutMS to an
    integer

    But if there's some way that this parameter value is even out of the range of an unsigned 32-bit value (4294967295) then this error could still happen. Unfortunately, the JS exception doesn't report the value that failed to convert.

    Expose the sbbs_t::uselect_count as console.uselect_count in JS

    It can be set, but only to values less than its current value.

    This is useful for tracking how many items were successfully added to a
    uselect list (considering filtering by ARS).
