irc: command "query" must be executed on irc buffer (server or channel)

When using /query or clicking a username to attempt to start a PM with that person.

Creating rooms sadly isn't implemented yet and I haven't thought about how we should present the user the different options while creating one.

The /query command should probably create a room with the preset of a trusted private chat and invite the user given as an argument. That room should also be marked as a direct one.

Also consider making /query USER bring you to the related buffer if a direct chat with USER already exists. There also needs to be a way to force creating a new room even if one exists already because that might sometimes be what is intended, though.

Inversely, closing a buffer doesn't seem to close that channel/user on the other end.

The /part command does work. Leaving the room because the buffer is closed isn't implemented since the same callback gets called if a user closes a buffer or if weechat is closing down and closes the buffer, so that is a little bit tricky to implement as well.

Maybe see what Riot.im does and copy that?

Riot has also some problems with this, a solution has been proposed here. So the query command would most likely utilize the create_dm API endpoint from the proposal, it makes things much easier for clients.
