Mario Fetka 4a952b4c4c dosutils: align Novell-compatible tests and stage NCOPY work
Update the DOS utilities and test suite with the current Novell comparison
state.

Validated/updated tool behavior:
- improve CREATOR output by showing Novell-style attribute and rights masks
- extend FLAGDIR handling with old NCP22 directory attribute read/write
  fallback paths
- expand NDIR Novell-style formatting, filtering, /SUB handling, date output,
  DI/RI attribute display and richer metadata collection
- adjust REVOKE output/grammar, recursive /SUBDIRECTORIES behavior and trustee
  update/delete paths to better match Novell tools
- adjust SLIST header/output behavior for logged-in and logged-out cases
- update README status to reflect the currently green/tested tools

Test-suite changes:
- add/refresh Novell comparison tests for CREATOR, NDIR, REVOKE and SLIST
- update NCOPY tests and collection scripts for the current investigation state
- refresh per-tool README files and top-level test documentation
- keep MAP documented as still separately open

NCOPY:
- add the current NCOPY implementation and experimental NCP74/server-side-copy
  scaffolding
- build ncopy.c so it stays compile-tested
- keep NCOPY disabled in the NET multicall dispatch for now because the
  server-side-copy/open-handle path is still unsafe and needs further analysis

Build:
- include ncopy.c in the DOS utility build
- drop the temporary MARS_DOSUTILS_VERSION define wiring from CMake

REVOKE comparison test

RVKSTA.BAT creates F:\RVKTEST and compares Novell \NPUBLIC\REVOKE output with the public implementation \PUBLIC\REVOKE.

Result tree:

  • F:\RVKCMP\OUT - Novell baseline output
  • F:\RVKCMP\PUBOUT - public implementation output
  • F:\RVKCMP\COMPARE.LOG - direct FC comparisons
  • F:\RVKCMP\UNOV - user-context Novell RIGHTS readback
  • F:\RVKCMP\UPUB - user-context public RIGHTS readback
  • F:\RVKCMP\UCOMP.LOG - user-context FC comparisons

The direct matrix covers:

  • individual right removal: R, W, C, E, M, F, A, S
  • mixed rights removal such as R F, R W C, E M F, S W C M
  • ALL removal, which should delete the trustee entry
  • file-specific mode with /FILES
  • recursive directory mode with /SUBDIRECTORIES
  • missing trustee, missing user, missing path, invalid right, bad grammar, and /FILES /SUBDIRECTORIES

Automatic user-context readback requires:

SET LGNTPWD=your-supervisor-password
F:\RVKSTA

RVKC.BAT is queued via DLYSTRT, logs in as NOPASSUSER, captures RIGHTS output for the matrix cases, logs SUPERVISOR back in, and then starts RVKSTA PART2 to copy and compare the user-context results.

RVKZIP.BAT packs the result tree and cleans F:\RVKTEST and C:\RVKTMP.
