Přemysl Janouch 705c0e943e WIP: add a stub IRC daemon named `kike'
As it is going to share a great lot of functionality with ZyklonB, I have
decided to extract the common parts into `common.c' and make the two subprojects
include this file.

The Single Compile Unit concept has proven valuable (sub-second compile times,
dead code warnings, almost no need for function declarations, whole-program
optimizations), and the sources aren't that long so far anyway.

I am probably going to add CMake support later but so far it's not a priority.
This project is meant to be portable and freely relocatable (ie. no hardcoded
paths if I can avoid it).

ZyklonB
=======
`ZyklonB' is an experimental IRC bot, building upon the concept of my other
VitaminA IRC bot. The main characteristic of these two bots is that they run
plugins as coprocesses, which allows for enhanced reliability and programming
language freedom.
While originally intended to be a simple C99 rewrite of the original bot, which
was written in the GNU dialect of AWK, it fairly quickly became a playground
where I added everything that seemed nice.

Also included is a simple IRC daemon that mostly follows the RFC's but is
limited to single-server networks, due to the protocol being incredibly ugly
and tricky to implement correctly. Even so, it took me a ridiculous amount of
time to write. (But it was a valuable exercise and I can reuse the code.)
