This introduces the concept of a real username. This value comes
from either the initial USER message or from an ident lookup. Doing
this allows us to use it for bans through vidents and cloaking web
client users using their remote username.
While changing this I also changed all of the uses of "ident" other
than RFC 1413 lookups and some compatibility cases to refer to
usernames as user(name) instead of ident. Our use of ident in these
places was incorrect as that only refers to the RFC 1413 response
and is not commonly used in the way we used it by any other IRC
server implementations.
- Rename from (On)PassCompare to (On)CheckPassword.
- Fix the order of the arguments to be password, hash, value. This
makes more sense than what it was previously.
- Fix the code documentation to not be complete nonsense and not
reference ancient outdated APIs.
- Move core connect class checks and <performance:clonesonconnect>
to the core_user module.
- Add pre-change and post-change events for when a connect class
changes.
- Split explicit class changing out into its own method.
- Remove the need to almost always call CheckClass after SetClass.
- Add use counting to the connect class instead of relying on the
shared_ptr use count.
- Promote autologin to a core concept with visibility in events.
- Replace the binary yes/no value with strict/relaxed/never. This
intentionally breaks v3 oper block autologin as admins will need
to review them for the security implications of the new behaviour.
- Allow overriding privileges from the <class> blocks in the <type>
and <oper> blocks.
- Separate oper types from oper accounts in the code. This enables
moving some core stuff out of the config tag later.
- Merge the config tags together to make a synthetic tag that can
have getXXX called on it instead of using getConfig and then
converting it.
- Move the details of Have*Permission into the oper type class.
- Improve oper events to allow modules to easily hook into the oper
system.
We previously referred to both session registration and user registration
as "registration" which is confusing for users who aren't familiar with
how IRC works.
