    Update help text for fixed events, clarifying that some can be interactive

    JS or Baja mods configured to run as fixed New User or Logon events *may*
    have user interaction.

    Log Message:
    scfg: rich helpbuf for External Programs menu

    Replace the two-line stub with per-sub-menu descriptions for all 6
    entries (Fixed Events, Timed Events, Native Program List, Message
    Editors, Global Hot Key Events, Online Programs/Doors). Intro
    clarifies these all run under the Terminal Server (events on its
    event thread, the rest in online-user node context).

    Notable corrections vs. the old draft:

    - Global Hot Key Events aren't "sysop hot-keys" -- they're gated by
    per-event ARS and any user meeting them can trigger.
    - Message-editor example uses SlyEdit (the actual popular editor)
    rather than the invented "SyncEdit".

    Log Message:
    scfg: describe every drop file the "Modify User Data" option reads

    The help text named only MODUSER.DAT and the RBBS/QuickBBS
    EXITINFO.BBS, but the option also drives a read-back of DOOR.SYS and
    of PCBoard's USERS.SYS, and which of the four is used is decided by
    the program's configured drop file type. A sysop reading the old text
    would reasonably conclude the option does nothing for a DOOR.SYS door.

    List the fields each format lets a program change, note that only
    EXITINFO.BBS and MODUSER.DAT are deleted once read, and state that
    none of them can raise a user to sysop security level.

    No menu option was added, renamed or removed, so the option search
    index is unaffected.
