Extend mosh and mosh-server to support parsing a high port from
the desired_port argument. The first (low) port must not be
greater than the second (high) port.
If only one value is provided, behaviour is as before; bind
to one port. Also tweak the formatting in mosh-server(1) synopsis
to be consistent.
This resolves mosh issue # 296.

Otherwise the next opened fds are 0/1/2, and any code writing to
stdout/stderr might break things by writing to an unintentional fd.

The previous code had the following issues:
1) hardcoded the path of /bin/sh (should use paths.h)
2) threw away the variable with the fallback shell
3) prepended - to the path rather than the shell name
4) added a - before explicit chosen non-shell commands
Closes#199.
As far as I know, for all implementations of libutempter, the
utempter_remove_added_record() function depends on the file descriptor
passed to utempter_add_record() to still be valid. The reason for this,
is that this file descriptor is propagated to the setuid utility that is
responsible for modifying utmpx.
Modify the code to remove the utmpx entry before closing the
pseudo-terminal master device. While there, simply use
utempter_remove_record(), which takes the file descriptor explicitly.
The advantage is that this prevents potential foot-shooting in the
future. Visual inspection of the source code will make it more obvious
that utempter depends on the file descriptor.
Closes#179.
selfpipe already does a fine job of interfacing to signalfd. But Debian and
Ubuntu want us to depend on the skalibs-dev package rather than build libstddjb
ourselves. That would be fine except that skalibs-dev has static libraries
only, and they aren't built with -fPIC. This interferes with building
mosh-{client,server} as position-independent executables, which is a desirable
security measure.
So we have our own wrapper, which invokes either signalfd or selfpipe. And we
build it ourselves with our own flags, because it's part of the Mosh project
proper.

IMO 'new' should be dropped entirely since it's not optional and 'new' is the only choice.
If it were to change in future then it should go after all the options.
