These are optional after all. Not everyone links multiple servers
and not everyone uses Services. Fits with the rest that is //'ed
out now. Indirectly suggested by jwheare.
In addition to regular logging, also add a JSON log file.
This includes lots of information about every event so is great
for auditing purposes and is machine readable. It is, however
less readable for humans.
People should preferrably go through the example conf line by line, but
if they are in a hurry or just want to get started quickly initially they
could CTRL+F on that.
Several notes:
* This only checks on-JOIN (not on nick change, message, etc)
for performance reasons
* If the #channel in ~inherit:#channel also contains ~inherit
entries then those are not processed (no recursion and no looping)
* Only a limited number of ~inherit entries is permitted.
This will be moved to set:: items in a future commit so you
can set different amounts for +b/+e/+I ~inherit.
* This is work in progress, UnrealIRCd or the entire world could explode
* Documentation will follow later
Developers:
* Sadly, clean_ban_mask() needed to be changed to have two more
parameters, 'ban_type' and 'channel' were added at different positions.
This because the module needs the ban type (EXBTYPE_BAN, EXBTYPE_EXCEPT,
EXBTYPE_INVEX) and channel because it rejects based on number of
existing ~inherit entries in the channel... and while is_ok() is called
for local clients and has all this information, for services clients
is_ok() is not called so the only way to reject the +beI is through
xxx_conv_param() which comes from clean_ban_mask().
This also automatically adds it as a security group and mask item:
ban user {
mask { asn 64496; }
reason "Testing ASN ban";
}
And yeah, it is a normal extban too (in +b and +I). Users usually
don't know the AS Number of other users, though, unless you change
the default configuration (at the cost of privacy).
Updated release notes a bit... more will follow.
* Including default download via unrealircd.org
* Shown in WHOIS - currently in RLP_WHOISCOUNTRY, not sure
if that is correct.
* Shown in connect notices [asn: XYZ] [asname: BLAH BLAH]
* Shown in json user expansion (JSON logging and JSON-RPC)
* Only via geoip_classic at the moment
* Structs and serializing in geoip_base done
* Extbans not added yet
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)
* 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).

"This is an IRCv3 extension which lets clients opt-out of receiving /names on join.
This is useful for bots on large channels who do not need to know who is in the channel.
Specification: https://ircv3.net/specs/extensions/no-implicit-names"
+ module rename from 'no-implicit-names-cap' to 'no-implicit-names'
(simply because no other modules has that -cap suffix)
+ update to Makefile.windows
