Put the QTC window's settings on its right-click menu

N1MM keeps them on a Setup tab inside the window; here they are a dialog behind
a right-click, which suits a window this size better. Four of them, with N1MM's
own defaults: how many QTCs a series carries, whether the RX Ready and Cfm steps
are stopped at on the way through, and whether Hdr Agn and Agn clear what they
are asking for again.

Each one changes what the window does. The series count is passed to the search
for contacts worth reporting, the two skip settings are the focus order, and the
two clear settings are what the Agn buttons do. The Cfm buttons also disappear
when a RTTY station is reading its own log out, which is what N1MM does with
them.

N1MM's remaining QTC settings are all about putting traffic on the air — the CW
messages for Agn and TU, the field spacing, the four SSB recordings, the RTTY
templates — and nothing here transmits, so they are left out rather than shown
as settings that do nothing. The dialog says so where the operator will look.

The right-click menu needed a background on the panel to come up anywhere but
over a control: a panel with no background is not hit-tested.

Right-click the window for **Setup**: how many QTCs a series carries, whether
the RX Ready and Cfm steps are stopped at, and whether Hdr Agn and Agn clear
what they ask for again. The defaults are N1MM's — both steps skipped, the
header cleared, the line left alone.
Nothing in the window transmits. On CW the operator sends from the entry window,
on SSB by voice, and RTTY has no digital window yet, so Agn, Cfm and RX Ready
move the cursor rather than putting anything on the air.

The scoring was checked against six real WAE logs, and agrees with N1MM on
points and on weighted multipliers to the contact.
