This way you can limit the number of pastes going on in a channel, as
this is from everyone in that channel (like 'm') not individual (like 't').
If it is exceeded then we will simply reject the BATCH, similar to
how action d(rop) works for some other subtypes. You won't see the paste
on the channel, only the sending user receives an error (MULTILINE_PASTE_LIMIT).
Small note: a multiline BATCH of just 2 lines is not considered a paste.
We consider a multiline of 3+ lines as a paste. I think that is reasonable,
since a two-line-multiline is not that much of a paste ;).
In the default anti-flood profile (+F normal) we also set 2p per 15s,
so this means channels are by default limited to 2 pastes per 15s max.
Of course, you can override this with +f [4p]:15 or whatever you like.
In terms of +F profiles, the defaults are (maximum x pastes per 15 seconds):
very-strict: 1p
strict: 1p
normal: 2p
relaxed: 2p
very-relaxed: 3p
thus removing commands that are only supposed to be used by IRC clients.
We don't intend to document things like CAP, PONG, etc here.
Remove ISON, PONG, WATCH. Also remove DALINFO which no longer exists.
Re-index the USERCMDS and OPERCMDS table. This removes no longer existing
commands and may also have added some that were not in the index.
Moved STATS from USERCMDS to OPERCMDS since by default it is Oper-only
(and very likely is so effectively in practice).
Maybe PRIVMSG is a bit inconsistent in all this, since users don't type
that but usually it is like MSG. But yeah.. okay.. i can live with that.
As an aside, I don't like services commands being documented in HELPOP,
but that is another matter. These should be 100% documented in the wiki
first before they are scratched in the HELPOP. Right now some are still
missing.
The new target type is called 'T' and we match against "name=value"
of each message tag (or just "name" if it is without value).
Example: SPAMFILTER ADD -simple T kill 0 this_is_a_test +typing=active
(No this is not a suggestion :D)
This probably won't be used much at all, but it is good to have the
option available in case there is some massive problem,
especially since more message tags may pop up sooner or later.
Caveat: this is actually a bit slow as we may have to check multiple
message tags for a single line.
If there are zero message-tag spamfilters then we will automatically
short-circuit and save all this CPU, which will be the most common case.
The new display field is called 'R', use something like:
WHO * %cuhsnfmdaRr
At the moment only "displaying" is available and not "searching"
on reputation. If you need that, you're stuck with the /REPUTATION
command at the moment. Too much hassle to implement that.

This is 1,5 years after 459a55245a
and we're on a new series too (5.0), so it was about time.
And YES you may still use }; if you want to. There are no
plans to deprecate or warn about it.
We simply ship with } in the shipped configs because it is
more logical that both { and } don't require a ; rather
than only { not requiring it.
