Log Message:
sbbs: optional ip-silent.can target for max-concurrent auto-filter (issue #1140)

New per-server setting `MaxConConnFilterSilent` (sbbs.ini [bbs] section,
SCFG: Servers -> Telnet/RLogin -> Max Concurrent Connections -> Auto-Filter
Silently). When enabled, IPs that exceed the concurrent-connection
threshold are added to `text/ip-silent.can` instead of `text/ip.can`, so
subsequent connections from those IPs are dropped without logging a
"blocked" notice. Default is `false` (unchanged behavior).

Also log the basename of the .can file the abuser IP is being added to
("BLOCKING IP ADDRESS: <ip> in <ip.can|ip-silent.can>") matching the
mailsrvr spam_block precedent.
