    Log Message:
    Change ANSI-color to black on black to obscure garbage in term-detect sequence

    Pretty up the initial connection for non UTF-8 ANSI terminals, at least.

    Also removed what looks like an extraneous underscore after the return to normal ANSI attribute (CSI 0m) sequence - I'm not sure. It's been there since Synchronet v2 so it's possible that some terminal needed it for some reason
    but that reason has been lost to time (maybe WIP/DCTerm detection?).

    Fixes issue #996

    Log Message:
    Fix potential deadlock in specific case

    If the telnet client sends an IP address as a Location, and that
    IP address is in a filter file, the input thread mutex would not
    be unlocked.

    This oddball feature was suggested on Reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/synchronet/comments/khuyey/ftelnetwebsocketservicejs/

    And implemented in Synchronet here: https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/2bbe824c0656176d0314f2d48558b322a69b9e32

    It appears that it's been broken the whole time.

    Found by some LLM (ChatGPT?) and reported by nelgin.
