    Allow valid_chars to be a string of digits

    By default, an ini value made up of all digits is a number, the
    only way to get it as a string is to pass a default whose type is
    a string.

    In the case where valid_chars is a number, re-parse with a string
    default...

    Use user properties instead of user comment to store secret code

    The secret code isn't cleared after it's validated, but it didn't appear to
    be cleared before this change either (the comment retained the code).

    Removed all references to "telnet" and "telval".

    If the user's security level is not still at "level_before_validation" at the time of validation, don't change (possibly downgrading!) their level.

    I would think a property indicating that the user is validated rather than based on level (what if you want to add flags, but not change their level?) would be better.

    I'm not too thrilled about the email being sent from "sysop", but didn't
    change that.

    The string returned from new Date() can be really long with the platform specific timezone string, so that should probably be fixed too.
