depending on the module load order. Reported by k4be.
Changes:
* Websocket hooks:
* Input should be run first
* Output should be run last
* Labeled-response also had various hook priorities wrong
* Pre command should be run near-first
* Post command should be run near-last
* Close connection (does the flush) should be run near-last
* Packet should be run near-last
Also, remove unnecessary comment about calling lr_post_command() with
the last two arguments being NULL. We don't use these two variables
inside lr_post_command() after this change anyway.
This had to do with the queued packet (in the labeled-response module)
not being sent because the client was freed before the
post packet hook was called.
This so I - and others - don't constantly have to wonder whether the client
is called sptr, cptr or acptr in a simple routine.

Couldn't just mass-replace of course since there are places where there
are multiple clients involved. So had to check each function.
Also renamed some 'acptr' to 'target' and such.
I will write a page with new style rules later.. but in short if there is
only 1 client involved it will now be called 'client'.
MOD_UNLOAD. And MOD_HEADER(xyz) is now MOD_HEADER even without ()
since this isn't a function, really.
To make things understandable I added the following to the
developer section of the release notes:
* The module header is now as follows:
ModuleHeader MOD_HEADER
= {
"nameofmodule",
"5.0",
"Some description",
"Name of Author",
"unrealircd-5",
};
There's a new author field, the version must start with a digit,
and also the name of the module must match the loadmodule name.
So for example third/funmod must also be named third/funmod.
* The MOD_TEST, MOD_INIT, MOD_LOAD and MOD_UNLOAD functions no longer
take a name argument. So: MOD_INIT(mymod) is now MOD_INIT()
This so we have a few simple concepts:
Client: this can be a user, server, or something unknown yet
Then the type of clients:
User: this is a user, someone with a nick name.
Server: this is a server
Etc.
aChannel to Channel, and some more. Third party module coders will
love this. But.. it makes things more logical and the doxygen output
will look more clean and logical as well.
(More changes will follow)
and remove old dependency field (never used, was always NULL,
broken since 3.2.x)
I'll add some constraints later on things like names and versions.
IOTW: more changes to follow, don't mass update your own mods yet.
Note that the labeled-response implementation currently requires
'batch' and will always start a BATCH if there is any response.
Later on we can implement a simple queue so we don't have to
start a batch for 1-line responses (which works, but looks a bit
silly if you look at raw server traffic). That may be after alpha1,
though, as there are more (important) things to work on right now.
For example, msgid / message-ids is not a CAP, while server-time is.
There mere fact of something being in CAP or not shouldn't cause
something to be in different directories ;).
