Easy (and correct) name capitalization, sub/turbo status

[WizardCM]

As you're using IRC to initially collect chat, you can actually enable IRCv3 tags for PRIVMSG and parse them for the correct name capitalization, and fetching the chatter's turbo and subscriber status for emulating chat just that little bit more.

First, send a CAP REQ :twitch.tv/tags to let the server know you understand the tags, then simply parse the new message, using the display-name, turbo and subscriber.

Before:
:inanecandor!inanecandor@inanecandor.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #reninjakitteh :so far Kappa
After:
@color=;display-name=InaneCandor;emotes=25:7-11;subscriber=0;turbo=0;user-type=;user_type= :inanecandor!inanecandor@inanecandor.tmi.twitch.tv PRIVMSG #reninjakitteh :so far Kappa

This is fully documented here and would be an awesome addition.

Thanks for making such a sweet and useful extension! Keep up the great work. :)

Thank's for pointing that out! First time I hear about Twitch's IRCv3. I will see what I can do.

Twitch did some changes related to this. Getting the EMOTESET using TWITCHCLIENT 3 does no longer work which forced me to use the new emote range supplied in the IRCv3 data (see b17f8d4). As a side effect, names should now be correctly capitalized (for messages as of today). Badges etc. will follow later.

Twitch did say they were planning on phasing out TWITCHCLIENT completely in favour of CAP, so that may be it.

Progress of chat badges implementation will be tracked in #20.
