Fix for `psftp-pscp-ignore-load': Default Settings is now loaded

I've also changed the semantics of "-load" slightly for PSCP, PSFTP,

implicit loading of session details based on a supplied hostname

"-load" session than the implicit session). (PuTTY itself doesn't do
implicit loading at all, so I haven't changed it.)

This means that all the PuTTY tools' behaviour is now consistent iff
"-load" is specified (otherwise, some tools have implicit-session, and
others don't).

However, I've not documented this behaviour, as there's a good chance
it will be swept away if and when we get round to sorting out how we

Reasonably grotty hacks so that the droppings left by the man page

Now that Halibut is capable of generating man pages better than I
can do it by hand, I've converted the man page set from Unix PuTTY
into Halibut format, and enhanced the Makefile so it will build
them. At some future point this will also allow me to include the
man pages as an appendix in the main manual (once I _have_ a main
manual for Unix PuTTY).
