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.
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.
This becomes important because of away-notify sending aways to common
channels much like nick changes (which are also paced).
Marking as unaway is not limited (but obviously only does something if the
user was away before). To allow users to fix typos in away messages, two
aways are allowed in sequence if away has not been used recently.
