Registration now opens with CAP LS 302 (servers without IRCv3 ignore it
and register as before). From the offered capabilities (multi-line LS
lists included) the client requests server-time and, when the profile
enables it, sasl; then AUTHENTICATE PLAIN with the account (defaulting
to the nick) and a stored SASL password (irc-sasl-password), base64 in
400-byte chunks, and CAP END on success or failure — failures are shown
on the Server tab and the connection carries on (NickServ still works).
server-time tags stamp events with the server's clock, so replayed
history shows real times.
Tested against the fake IRC server: multi-line LS, REQ/ACK, the PLAIN
exchange, 903, CAP END, and a tagged message's timestamp.
