    Log Message:
    Use the new ini*Parsed*() interface to speed up dialing directory

    When using many online lists for a total of thousands of entries,
    the INI file interface is notiably slow (up to two seconds in my
    tests). With the new interface, this is down as low as 0.25 seconds.

    Still noticable, not not nearly as irritating.

    New INI pre-parser written for fast.

    Minimal allocations, don't recalculate things if possible, uses
    bsearch(), and qsort(), works with SyncTERM... not used by scfg.

    It would be pretty trivial to add a function to get the section
    list in file order too, which I'll likely do right away.

    Over ten times faster with 2000 entries.

    Fix list corruption with encrypted lists

    Reading/writing the list to update the call count did terrible things.
