[Erc-help] Patch for improved NOTICE output handling

[Jeremy Maitin-S. <jb...@at...>]

Hello,

I have replaced the existing rather limited private NOTICE output
configuration system (namely, `erc-echo-notices-in-minibuffer-flag' and
`erc-echo-notices-in-current-buffer') with a much more flexible hook
system.

Specifically, I have added two hooks, `erc-echo-notice-hook' and
`erc-echo-notice-always-hook'.  Both hooks are run when a NOTICE should
be echoed to the user; the former is run using
`run-hook-with-args-until-success', while the second is run using
`run-hook-with-args'.  I have also added a number of functions which
can be used with this hook:

`erc-echo-notice-in-default-buffer', `erc-echo-notice-in-target-buffer',
`erc-echo-notice-in-minibuffer', `erc-echo-notice-in-server-buffer',
`erc-echo-notice-in-active-non-server-buffer',
`erc-echo-notice-in-active-buffer', `erc-echo-notice-in-user-buffers',
`erc-echo-notice-in-user-and-target-buffers',
`erc-echo-notice-in-first-user-buffer'

These changes are available at:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~jbms/erc-new-notice-handling.patch

I will commit them if no one protests or suggests changes.
