zefie 1165b245ce v0.9.33
- numerous bug fixes
 - wtv-mail system
 - user account updates
 - viewergen alpha (experimental webtv viewer patcher on pc_service)
 - implement wtv-favorites with huge help from @JarHead4
 - add wtv-ticket store api
 - Bump vm2 from 3.9.5 to 3.9.7 in /zefie_wtvp_minisrv
 - fix bf0app default rom
 - Add wtv-1800 service to wtv-1800:/noflash
 - handle webtvism:
   - allow get/post variables to be the same name multiple times
   - rather than overwrite, the server will now change the variable from a string to an array.
 - Rewrite script processing a bit
   - Instead of using eval() we now use a proper VM Context
   - As a result, any scripting errors will now give a more useful filename and line number.
   - However, some things may break, if they are dependant on variables we are not allowing in the context.
 - BREAKING CHANGES:
   - `ssid_sessions[socket.ssid]` is now `session_data`
   - `require` is no longer allowed in user scripts
 - add star service
 - change how we handle modules for services in the VM
 - fixed wtv-disk:/sync always failed the first time
 - implement production-like wtv-star handling (when a service port becomes unavailable, it requests the url over the wtv-star port to show an error page)
 - renamed WTVDownloadList.js to WTVDisk.js
 - a bit more work on WTVNews (created class)
 - probably more stuff I can't remember

The bf0app flashing system requires a two things that you must be aware of, that are different from a typical setup:
1) Your PPP system MUST accept auth, a noauth setup will not work for the 2nd dialing phase
2) You must have a clean dialup. DreamPi voltage-hacked lines, and unstable VoIP systems are known
to cause errors, leaving the box in a 'braindead' state with no flash. MiniSrv can help recover
from this but you will need to provide a stable dialup connection. This was tested with my Cisco 3825 setup.
3) bf0app systems flash right away, as soon as a part is received and validated.
This means if your bf0app box fails mid-flash, you could design a custom page to send the flashrom
from where it left off (for example, if your box failed on part 3 of 16, you could start again at
part 3 (with a specially set up page, minisrv won't do this by default)
