    Update docs section about use of global variables.
    
    It referred to the global variable 'flags' as an example. But 'flags'
    was retired (and good riddance) nearly a year ago, in commit
    4ea811a0bf. So we should be using a different example now!

    Document PuTTY's local idiom for OO / traits.
    
    A user mentioned having found this confusing recently, and fair
    enough, because it's done in a way that doesn't quite match the
    built-in OO system of any language I know about. But after the
    rewriting in recent years, I think pretty much everything in PuTTY
    that has a system of interchangeable implementations of the same
    abstract type is now done basically the same way, so this seems like a
    good moment to document the idiom we use and explain all its ins and
    outs.
