Summary: Initial POE::Component::IRC support

Initial Comment:
This is very very rough.  It'll connect to the server and that's about it.  I'm working on getting it to automatically join channels currently, but there's a TON of stuff left to do still.  As such, it does work.  This is a diff against SVN.

Message:
Thanks, I'll look into that.  That might reduce the code a little too.  The
other thing I haven't figured out how to duplicate yet is the scheduling
system.  There's POE::Component::Schedule, but I don't know if it will work
for what infobot does.

Hi, Tim.  irc.perl.org #poe is available to assist with POE::Component::IRC
advice.  For example, it has a plugins system that might help with joining
channels:

There seem to be a lot of plugins

This is Tim again (posting from my sourceforge account now).  I finally got
back to working on this.  I forgot I made this originally and started over
from scratch.  I have a new version of the patch that will connect to a
server (SSL supported), along with supporting the karma command at the very
least.  I haven't gotten it automatically joining channels, but /invite
works and the bot will join a channel without errors.

I made a separate feature request (again, I forgot I posted this one 2
years ago) as #3470671.  Should I post the new patch under that?  Also, a
new branch in SVN would be the most ideal way of working on this, so that I
don't have to worry about everything being only on my machine.

Message:
Do you have an account on SF directly? We could create a branch in SVN and
work on the POE support there. There are others interested in helping out,
but nobody else is currently working on it as far as I know.

Thanx!
