but was removed several years ago. I think this is a better place.
This also removes doc/Donation which was out of date and probably
not many people knew about it at all.

The reason for the warning is that in some future UnrealIRCd version I want the
rpc-user::rpc-class to become a required item.
This commit also adds rpc-class.default.conf which is by default
included from rpc.modules.default.conf.
This also completes the TODO list from b9de933378
(the rpc.add_timer was never a loophole and i kept rpc.info as-is)
This so you can restrict the JSON Methods that can be called, eg:
rpc-class limited {
privileges {
server { list; get; }
channel { list; get; }
user { list; get; }
}
}
rpc-user xyz {
match { ip 127.0.0.1; }
password "test";
rpc-class limited;
}
NOTE: This is work in progress
1) Things are NOT yet fully contained, as i need to lock down
rpc.add_timer still :)
2) Some more work, eg rpc.info would be nice to show some
information about the restriction (??)
3) Need to fix a memory leak
4) Possibly more
Ignore these for entire src/dns.c.
Quoting https://github.com/c-ares/c-ares/pull/732#issuecomment-2028454381:
"Those deprecated functions will remain available until there is an ABI
break, which honestly will likely never happen. It's more to encourage
integrators to move to the more modern functions."
Also, keep in mind that several of these 'deprecations' happened in early 2024
while the new function was introduced in March 2020, like for ares_getaddrinfo().
That isn't all that long ago, only 4 years. So we would need compatibility code
for both the old and new function for a while.
So: we can look into that in some major new UnrealIRCd version, nothing urgent,
and perhaps by then it is long enough that we don't need the fallback to older
functions.
* Add more [Crule](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Crule) functions:
* `is_tls()` returns true if the client is using SSL/TLS
* `in_security_group('known-users')` returns true if the user is in the
specified [security group](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Security-group_block).
* `match_mask('*@*.example.org')` or `match_mask('*.example.org')`
returns true if client matches mask.
* `match_ip('192.168.*')` or with CIDR like `match_ip('192.168.0.0/16')`
returns true if IP address of client matches.

This rename free_config_defines() to init_config_defines and calls it from
config_read_start() so caller doesn't have to think about it.
And this is easily mistaken with "REHASH -global" which rehashes all
the IRC servers on the network.
In fact, who knows some year(s) from now we may map "REHASH -all"
to "REHASH -global", but... not yet...
* When booting for the first time (without any cached files) the IRCd
downloads GeoIP.dat. If that fails, e.g. due to lack of internet connectivity,
we now show a warning and continue booting instead of it being a hard error.
Note that we already dealt with this properly after the file has been cached
(so after first download), see "What if your web server is down" in
[Remote includes](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Remote_includes#What_if_your_web_server_is_down).
And update release notes:
* Add more [Crule](https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Crule) functions:
* `is_away()` returns true if the client is currently away
* `has_user_mode('x')` returns true if all the user modes are set on the
client.
* `has_channel_mode('x')` can be used for spamfilters with a destination
channel, such as messages: it returns true if all specified channel modes
are set on the channel.
This fixes a bug where if you run ./Config with 'auto' file descriptors,
and then have an unusually low 'ulimit -n' of like 150, you would end up
with a negative amount of file descriptors available for use.
This fix moves it from compile-time setting of reserved fd's to runtime
setting.
All this is wrong, by the way, but that is for another major overhaul,
at least this bug is fixed now :D
