Ability to temporarily ignore user/watchword pairs in #mod-alerts #551

Description

@dementati

Occasionally a single user will very frequently cause false positive watchlist triggers, which results in constant moderator pings. This can for example happen if pasted code contains identifiers from a different language that happens to be homonymous with a watchlist word (the Danish word "fag" translates to "subject" in English). It would be nice if it was possible to temporarily disable the watchlist for a particular user and a particular word. I'm imagining a command that takes a watchlist word, a user ID and an expiry time. Perhaps the user ID can be optional, to disable the watchlist for all users temporarily. Maybe the expiry can be optional with a reasonable default.
