MONITOR support

[motion]

MONITOR support removes any requirement of the client to send commands every 3 seconds (freeing up a big burdon on the queue as well im sure)

you should check the ability of the server on connect, and use MONITOR if its available to check for the nick its trying to get, and maybe check every 1/5 minutes to verify the nick is still there (no reason it wouldnt be but i dont know how you do 'checks' to ensure things are sane in wraith)

and if MONITOR is not supported use ISON instead.

For the record, ISON is in fact currently used. Bryan was fucking with you that day.
