Add a "nick" field in the IRC configuration form

What

A "nick" field, in the IRC configuration form (the ad-hoc form of irc.foo.bar@biboumi).

If set, biboumi would ignore any nick passed during the join, and send back the nick in the self-presence. (Maybe there are better ways to do this).

I suppose this doesn't influence the NICK command.

Why

I often want biboumi to set my nick, as I have one that is registered with the server and will rarely change, that might not correspond to my JID localpart nor the default_nick set in my XMPP client.

This often causes me issues because my default_nick is not a valid IRC nick, and the direct translation is taken on some servers already, and I end up getting disconnected.

I can prevent this by setting my nick on every single bookmark, but this quickly becomes tedious.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have admin enable hashed storage. More information
