What's happening ?

[Lymkwi]

Incompatibility between IRCd and user. Apparently, this function is supposed to read packets from IRCds following the RFC 1459 and not updated since then. A line was apparently misread and caused a crash when trying to use a not found expression in it. I added an error message providing a value for this, on both actual and old irc versions. https://github.com/Ombridride/minetest-minetestforfun-server/commit/582f7a363509f6c6684c5f607cc3ecc64f1027a0
