do a general cleanup of sprintf -> snprintf as well as strcpy and strncat
safety. Also expand some buffers to allow for the largest possible data
that might be used.
This is a 2.2 candidate. However, it needs to be vetted on -current
since little testing has been done on this due to my lack of PPP on
this machine.

connecting to a host immediately in the foreground.
I would like to be able to run ppp from a script so that my script can be
sure that it is connected to the 'net before it continues running:
# Dial up the internet.
ppp -background myprovider || exit 1
do-some-net-command
# Hang up the modem.
kill -HUP `cat /var/run/ppp.tun0.pid`
Another problem is that the current ppp calls its process id file
`/var/run/PPP.server', which may conflict if you have more than one IP
tunnel interface available.

'set debug link' will record just link up/down and address assignments.
'set debug connect' will record the entire chat dialog
'set debug carrier' will record just chat lines including 'CARRIER'
(so that I can be sure I'm getting a 28.8 line).
There was a global change required to permit LogPrintf to take a bit
mask instead of a bit position value (to permit logging some events
on either of two flags, so that no change in 'set debug lcp' would
result from the code supporting 'link'. Thus the diffs are rather
long for such a small change. The man page is also touched.

Perhaps most of the format strings are correct now because they were

When PPP gets an uncompressed packet, it attempts to save off the TCP/IP
header for use in decompressing subsequant packets. If PPP gets garbage
(such as what happens when there is a port speed mismatch or modem line
noise), it will occasionally mistake the packet as a valid uncompressed
packet. When it tries to save off the header, it doesn't bother to check
for the validity of the header length and will happily clobber not only
the PPP VJC data structure, but parts of other process memory that happens
to follow it...causing, ahem, undesired behavior.
is when the matched string spans the end of the inbuff. This fix allocates
twice the IBSIZE so that it can keep the last and the current text to search
in the inbuff so that the match won't fail if it gets truncated by the read.
It also warns if the search string is to long and truncates it.

The original submitters comments:
Two features iijppp has over kernel ppp that I like are predictor1
compression and demand dialing. Here are a few bug fixes.
I expanded the priority queueing scheme and discovered it was broken
due to the assignment at ip.c line 300. All packets were being
queued at the same priority.
Fixing priority queueing broke predictor1 compression. Packets
were compressed before being queued and predictor1 worked as long
as the packets were popped off the queue in the same order they
were pushed onto the queue.
There were a few byte order problems in IP header tests also.
There is a recursion problem in SendLqrReport(). LcpClose() is
called when "Too many echo packets are lost" which winds up in
SendLqrReport() again. I believe the original intention was to
just stop the LQR timer with the call to StopLqr() but the side
effects hurt.

A settable redial timer helps to avoid the problem where both ends
of a link want to dial at the same time and the line winds up busy
for both ends. The process id is logged in /var/run/PPP.system where
system is the name of the called system. When both ends of a link
are running in demand dial mode, you need an easy way to get the pid
of the ppp on the called end so it can be killed and re-started with
-direct or pppd started to handle the incoming ppp session.

The first problem I found was that descriptor 0 was being closed.
This happens because the modem variable is set to 0 to indicate
that it is not valid but there are not enough tests for the modem
variable being 0. You can see where I have done this in the patch.
Code in OpenModem() dups the modem descriptor if it is < 3. Once
this happened the modem was always open and an incomming call would
have getty and ppp reading the modem.
Descriptor 1 is closed when the quit command was executed from a
telnet connection. The next modem open returns descriptor 1
and this gets duped leaving the modem always open again.
The modem was not being closed when the connection dropped or was
closed from the other end. The UUCP lock was also not removed if
the modem could not be opened.
