Automate Syncing User Account Renaming

[bastisawesome]

Currently, when a user renames themselves the bot will require the streamer to manually invoke a command to migrate the user's score/tokens. There is a Twitch API endpoint that triggers when a user renames themselves on Twitch, so we can use that to automate the task of migrating a user's scores to the new username.

Update on this issue: it's a little bit more complex than I first understood. There are a few steps to make here, which may be broken up into multiple issues in the future if there's reason to.

1. Build a cache of viewers including their Twitch IDs
2. Run a lookup on the Twitch get_users API
3. Compare old username in database with new username from API
4. Update entries in the database

Some things to note:

• This will only work with Twitch usernames (obviously) but not RestreamIO usernames
• This will require periodic running of the system to do the checks

Some ideas for how to implement this:

• Timer event that fires once a week (for example)
• Run the check at bot startup
• Cache user checks and run a check at the first message from a user (may be able to tie into a TwitchIO system for user first messages?)

Naturally, this does require a database update, and may be pushed back until a much later release, depending on the complexity. Other database changes will take priority.
