    Log Message:
    In debug builds only, backup dsts.ini file when opening for write

    Hopefully help to determine cause of issue #791 (when is the apparent corruption of this file occurring?)

    Non-functional changes

    iniWriteFile() returns bool, not int.

    Removed inapplicable function comment.

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/getstats.c
    Log Message:
    fread_dstats() will now return false upon file read failure

    The file position should always be at the EOF after reading the contents.

    This should help detect (log errors) upon potential cause of issue #791.

    - use a little easier to read .ini style
    - add a NULL argument check to local function write_dstats()
    return false rather than deref the NULL pointer

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/getstats.c
    Log Message:
    Don't update/rewrite dsts.ini when iniReadFile returns NULL

    Even if the empty, iniReadFile() should return an empty list (not NULL),
    NULL indicates a file read (or unlikely malloc failure) - so don't write back what we read and return false (result) instead.

    Part of likely work-around of issue #791: it's better to not increment stats upon a file read error than to reset them all to zero.

    Log Message:
    Don't backup the dsts.ini file when saving changes, not needed any more

    Root-caused this problem to read() failures which are now caught and logged rather than zeroing out the statistics fields.
