I'm preparing to PR a succession of privs changes with the ultimate goal
of severely limiting the scope of the binary oper/user dichotomy and
move conceptually distinct oper functions into their own privs.
Accomplishing this is a non-trivial task, and can wait, but it's
inconvenient now to have such functions enabled by the same mechanism
that grants any privs at all--so I'm moving all of them to a
transitional priv with the intention of eroding that later.
Move opername and privset storage to struct User, so it can exist for
remote opers.
On /oper and when bursting opers, send:
:foo OPER opername privset
which sets foo's opername and privset. The contents of the privset on
remote servers come from the remote server's config, so the potential
for confusion exists if these do not match.
If an oper's privset does not exist on a server that sees it, it will
complain, but create a placeholder privset. If the privset is created by
a rehash, this will be reflected properly.
/privs is udpated to take an optional argument, the server to query, and
is now local by default:
/privs [[nick_or_server] nick]
As it stands, oper hiding is rather messy and inconsistent. Add
SeesOper(target, source), which is true iff target should appear as an
oper to source. If I haven't missed something, all commands that reveal
oper status now use the same logic.
general::hide_opers_in_whois is a special case, and affects /whois only.
general::hide_opers is introduced, and has the same effect as giving
everyone oper:hidden. All commands that reveal oper status respect both.
The CHALLENGE functionality will set opername but not privset --
if an oper performs a WHOIS on someone currently half-way through
a challenge we will perform a NULL dereference.

Also fix up some return values and stuff to use bool (or void if
nothing). I just did it whilst I was here.
According to jilles, the return value used to signify whether or not the
client had exited. This was error-prone and was fixed a long, long time
ago, but the return value was left int for historical reasons.
Since the return type is not used (and has no clear use case anyway),
it's safe to just get rid of it.
s_assert requires some higher-level functionality that shouldn't be
present in ircd_defs.h. ircd_defs.h is used by ssld, which has no notion
of logging or sending IRC messages. Additionally, some of the headers
s_assert depends on result in conflicting definitions in ssld.c.
This change also fixes the compile when using --enable-assert=soft.
The server protocol for this is
:<uid> ENCAP * CERTFP :<40 hex chars>
both in new user introductions and in burst.
As in oftc-hybrid, only the user themselves and opers can see the certfp.
Displaying the certfp on connect seems unnecessary to me,
the user can whois themselves if needed.
