    Log Message:
    presence_lib: add set_node_ext_status() for waiting-room node status

    Set (or clear) a node's extended free-text "activity" -- the string the who's-online / node listings show for what the user is doing (e.g. a JS door's waiting-room state). Writes the node's 128-byte node.exb record and toggles NODE_EXT via system.node_list[].misc; for the caller's own node it also overrides the NodeActionXtrnMenu action text so the BBS's periodic nodesync(), which re-derives NODE_EXT from that string, keeps the flag set instead of clearing it on the next sync. Guarded on js.global.bbs so it no-ops without a bbs object -- safe to load from the web server. Used by the SyncDOOM/SyncDuke JS waiting rooms.
