Elizabeth Myers a5c46d31e4 Ginormous docs cleanup.
Purge a lot of really old and obsolete documents, and merge some together
where possible. Lots of efnet docs and the old ircd-ratbox manpage (lol)
was purged.

Reorganise everything nice and neatly as possible. Things describing
features can be found in features/, and some more technical documents
were moved to techinical/.

Old credits file was consolidated into credits-past.txt, and a reference
was added to it in the credits.

Services compatibility documentation
------------------------------------
Originally written by Lee Hardy for ircd-ratbox. Minor changes by Elizabeth
Myers for modern services.
Compatibility with services is always enabled. Supported services include
atheme and anope. They add the following features to Charybdis:
1. Channel mode +r
A simple mode taking no parameters, will require users are logged in
with user services before they may join the channel.
Gives numeric 477 to users who arent logged in:
:<server> 477 <nick> <channel> :Cannot join channel (+r)
2. service block to ircd.conf
Ability to specify the names of services servers in ircd.conf:
service {
name = "services.charybdis.io";
name = "backup-services.charybdis.io";
};
These must be specified for certain features to work. You may specify as
many name entries as you wish, however you must define only one service
block.
Entries will be listed in stats U with the flag 's'.
3. Services protection
Services will be protected from being deopped or kicked from a channel.
4. Username tracking through netsplits
When users are logged in, the username they are logged in with will be
preserved on a netsplit, so users will not have to relogin when the
network merges together.
5. Username given on WHOIS
When users are logged in, WHOIS will also give numeric 330:
:<server> 330 <yournick> <targetnick> <loginname> :is logged in as
6. Forced nick change
When using nickname services and a client requests they regain a
nickname, services can perform a forced nick change on the client.
This forcibly changes the clients nickname to the one they requested
they regain, ensuring they can always regain their nickname.
7. User mode +R
This user mode will require users are logged in with user services
before they may send private messages or notices to the user.
As with user mode +g, IRC operators and accepted users can send even
if they are not logged in.
Gives numeric 486 to users sending a PRIVMSG who are not logged in:
:<server> 486 <nick> <targetnick> :You must log in with services to message this user
