This also includes buffer modifications to have a larger read buffer
and IRCv3 implementations (partial or not) for:
labeled-response, msgid, server-time, batch and account-tag.
As said, it is the initial and partial implementation.
There are still various FIXME's and TODO's, the API of various
functions may still change (actually that is true for the next
months, even) and some stuff is currently in the core that will
be moved to modules.
usually the fast badwords system is used instead)
* Code deduplication in src/modules/{chanmodes,usermodes}/censor.c
to src/match.c -- which may be moved later again to efuncs.
* Add --without-tre:
This means USE_TRE will be enabled by default right now
but if using --without-tre it will be undef'ed. This so we
can prepare for the TRE phase-out in 2020.
* Remove include/badwords.h, put contents in include/struct.h
* The operclass privileges have been redone. Since there were 50+ changes
to the 100+ privileges it makes little sense to list the changes here.
If, like 99% of the users, you use default operclasses such as "globop"
and "admin-with-override" then you don't need to do anything.
However, if you have custom operclass { } blocks then the privileges
will have to be redone. For more information on the conversion process,
see https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/FAQ#New_operclass_permissions
For the new list of permissions, with much better naming and grouping:

The inconsistency in the privileges was initially reported by webczat in
https://bugs.unrealircd.org/view.php?id=4771
The subsequent reorganization took two full days, so.. hopefully the
people who are using - or plan to use - custom operclasses will like the
new layout... except that they need to redo their work of course ;)
These are bans that are automatically removed by the server.
The duration is in minutes and the mask can be any ban mask.
=> Note that you need to load the extbans/timedban module!
Some examples:
* A 5 minute ban on a host:
+b ~t:5:*!*@host
* A 5 minute quiet ban on a host (unable to speak):
+b ~t:5:~q:*!*@host
* An invite exception for 1440m/24hrs
+I ~t:1440:*!*@host
* A temporary exempt ban for a services account
+e ~t:1440:~a:Account
* Allows someone to speak through +m for the next 24hrs:
+e ~t:1440:~m:moderated:*!*@host
* And any other crazy ideas you can come up with...
Note that they are NOT loaded by default at this time.
The modules are:
* extbans/textban - +b ~T:censor:*badword*
* usermodes/privdeaf - user mode +D: cannot receive PM's
* antirandom - "randomness" detector against drone attacks
* hideserver - hide servers (not real security, but requested)
* jumpserver - redirect users to another server during maintenance
* m_ircops - show which ircops are online (/IRCOPS command)
* m_staff - show custom file (/STAFF command)
* nocodes - don't just strip/block colors, do the same for reverse/bold/..
The existing README and sample configuration files for these modules
will later be added to the official UnrealIRCd documentation on
https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Main_Page (just search on the module name).
