    Fix default program section selection

    Hitting [Enter] is supposed to select the current/default program
    section. Instead, it was quitting. This was apparently broken as
    part of the xtrn_sec.js refactor a year or so ago by/with mlong.

    Add a carriage-return to the mouse hotspot value when needed

    For program listings, if the program number is fewer digits than the total program list count (number of digits), then a carriage return is required
    to launch that program. Automate this for the mouse hotspot value, so clicking Program #1 in a list of 10+ will just run that program and not require the
    user to hit the Enter key.

    Don't treat Enter as choosing default section when no prompt was shown

    As pointed out via DOVE-Net by DesotoFireflite (VALHALLA):
    When xtrn_sec.* display file/menu is used, there's no auto-generated
    prompt (with a default section number indicated). So hitting Enter
    in this case and having the previous/default program section selected
    would be surprising behavior to a user. So, only support a default
    section selection when there was no xtrn_sec.* menu/display file.
