Support automatically authenticating to NickServ #1600

Closed DemiMarie closed 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Reconnection to servers that do not support SASL does not work properly.

Describe the solution you'd like On servers (such as OFTC) where NickServ is the well-known authentication service, the bridge should support authenticating to it automatically.

Describe alternatives you've considered CertFP (#747) would also work, but making it convienient to set up would require issuing the CERTFP command to NickServ automatically.

Additional context This would need to be opt-in, as NickServ is not required to be the well-known authentication service.

Dupe of https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/issues/1483. OFTC auth not working is a known issue.
