add next/register.html page, improve bin/gen-status.sh

Browse Source 
Added a new `next/register.html` that is required by the mailing list server.
The `next/register.md` still contains a big **XXX - put more data here - XXX**
as a placeholder for information about the mailing list registration process.

Improved the status text for `faq.html`, `next/index.html` and `status.html`
via `faq.md`, `next/README.md` and `status.md`.  We also removed the
excessive links to IOCCC and instead use the term "contest" where applicable.

IMPORTANT CHANGE: Registration be available when the contest is both pending and open.

We made a number of changes to `faq.md`, `next/README.md` in an attempt to
reflect the above.

Changed `bin/gen-status.sh` VERSION from "1.7 2024-09-23"
to "1.8 2024-11-23".

Changed `bin/gen-top-html.sh` VERSION from "1.4.9 2024-08-11"
to "1.4.10 2024-11-23".

Perform `make www` and `make gen_status` to perform the above and test under macOS.

TODO: Change **XXX - put more data here - XXX** in `next/register.md` for information
      about how to join the mailing list.

# How to register for the IOCCC
**IMPORTANT**: Did you read the **How the contest status impacts registration** below?
You will need know the contest [../status.html] as that impacts your ability to
register and what happens when you do register.
# How the contest status impacts registration
### When the IOCCC status is _closed_
While the contest is **[CLOSED](../status.html#closed)**,
you **CANNOT REGISTER** as there is no contest for which you can register.
Watch the [IOCCC news](../news.html) and the [IOCCC Mastodon](https://fosstodon.org/@ioccc)
for news about the next IOCCC as you may register when the contest is [pending](../status.html#pending)
or [open](../status.html#open).
<div id="register">
### When the IOCCC status is _pending_
</div>
While the contest is **[PEDING](../status.html#pending)**,
you may **register for contest*, however you will **NOT**
receive your own Email message containing your [IOCCC submit server](https:/submit.ioccc.org)
**Username and Initial Password until the IOCCC is [open](../status.html#open)**.
XXX - put more data here - XXX
### When the IOCCC status is _open_
While the contest is **[OPEN](../status.html#open)**,
you may **register for the contest**. Once you are registered **AND**
the contest is [open](../status.html#open), you will receive your own Email message containing your very own
**Username and Initial Password until the contest is [open](../status.html#open)**. You will need these
to be able to [upload your submission](../faq.html#upload) to the [IOCCC submit server](https:/submit.ioccc.org).
See also the
FAQ on "[how to submit](../faq.html#submit)"
for more information on the submission process when the IOCCC [reopens](../status.html#open).
### When the IOCCC status is _judging_
While the contest is **[PENDING](../status.html#pending)**,
you **CANNOT REGISTER** as the current because the
[IOCCC judges](../judges.html) are in the process of judging the [submissions](../faq.html#how_many)
they received while the contest was [open](../status.html#open).
Watch the [IOCCC news](../news.html) and the [IOCCC Mastodon](https://fosstodon.org/@ioccc)
for news about the next IOCCC as you may register when the contest is [pending](../status.html#pending)
or [open](../status.html#open).
