Summary: X:CREATEMODE

Initial Comment:
We currently implement CREATE incorrectly (on purpose).
There needs to be an X: line that lets the
administrator choose whether or not they want people to
be able to create empty channels with /create. The
default behavior of CREATE is to not join the channel
after creation (add +c to the modes to auto-join it on
creation). With this functionality, it wouldn't be
difficult to initiate a denial of service. However, it
doesn't need to be hard-coded "wrong".

X:CREATEMODE:0 -- default behavior -- autojoin on creation
X:CREATEMODE:1 -- autojoin only if +c flag is present

If I don't add this before I do the XML configuration
file, the same option should be avaliable. Probably
something like

<security>
<commands>
<create mode="0" requiredlevel="0" />
<!-- ... -->
</commands>
</security>
