This becomes important because of away-notify sending aways to common
channels much like nick changes (which are also paced).
Marking as unaway is not limited (but obviously only does something if the
user was away before). To allow users to fix typos in away messages, two
aways are allowed in sequence if away has not been used recently.
This adds a new ISUPPORT token, NICKLEN_USABLE which is strictly an informative value.
NICKLEN is always the maximum runtime NICKLEN supported by the IRCd, as other servers may
have their own usable NICKLEN settings. As NICKLEN_USABLE is strictly informative, and
NICKLEN is always the maximum possible NICKLEN, any clients which depend on NICKLEN for
memory preallocation will be unaffected by runtime changes to NICKLEN_USABLE.
The default NICKLEN is 50; the default serverinfo::nicklen in the config file is set to
30, which is the NICKLEN presently used on StaticBox.
nenolod gave the thumbs-up to port ircd-seven banfowards to charybdis to spb
for a while, and people have asked about it. Might as well do it since it's a
slow weekend.
Note that as a side effect use_forward is removed from the config and
unconditionally enabled!
This has a separate enabling option channel::channel_target_change.
It applies to PRIVMSG, NOTICE and TOPIC by unvoiced unopped non-opers.
The same slots are used for channels and users.
If this option is yes (default), KLINE by itself sets global (propagated) bans.
If this option is no, KLINE by itself sets a local kline following cluster{},
compatible with 3.2 and older versions.
Such bans are not applied locally, but are propagated normally.
They can only be removed on a server that applies them.
Note that normally KLINE will not accept such bans.
This is mainly for services, differing min_wildcard and
ircd changes.
A KLINE command without the ON clause now sets a propagated
("global") ban. KLINE commands with the ON clause work as
before.
Propagated klines can only be removed with an UNKLINE command
without the ON clause, and this removes them everywhere.
In fact, they remain in a deactivated state until the latest
expiry ever used for the mask has passed.
Propagated klines are part of the netburst using a new BAN
message and capab. If such a burst has an effect, both the
server name and the original oper are shown in the server
notice.
No checks whatsoever are done on bursted klines at this time.
The system should be extended to XLINE and RESV later.
There is currently no way to list propagated klines,
but TESTLINE works normally.
The value 0 indicates the creation time is unknown (currently the case
for bandb).
Also store a creation time for xlines and resvs, but do not use it yet.
A notice will be sent to any force parted users that the channel
is temporarily/permanently unavailable on the server.
A new config option channel::resv_forcepart can be used to disable this.

Spaces in xline.conf files are changed to \s in memory
and recognized on unxline, but are not changed in the
file. New xlines are added to xline.conf files with \s.
xline.conf written by this commit or newer will not work
properly with charybdis older than 1124:131254925f32 (which
introduced \s support in match_esc()).
to restrict channel names to printable ascii only.
Like disable_fake_channels this only applies to joins
by local users; unlike disable_fake_channels it applies
to opers as well.
Specifying need_ssl on auth{} denies the connection if
it is not SSL/TLS, much like need_ident or need_sasl.
Specifying need_ssl on operator{} refuses opering with
ERR_NOOPERHOST if the connection is not SSL/TLS.
from ircd-ratbox
Throttle replaces max_unknown_ip, reject is like before
(including the charybdis-specific unkline handling).
Both of these now apply before SSL negotiation.
This commit does not include the global_cidr and new dline code.
m_webirc is a bit nasty with throttling (unlike before
with max_unknown_ip), this may be fixed later (or
the webirc IP needs to be exempt{}ed).
This changes flattened /links output to disclose less
routing information and slightly increases memory "leak"
from server names that do not come back anymore.
