Update doc/Platforms.txt

Rework cloaked hostname handling, implement "METADATA cloakhost" Now ngIRCd uses two fields internally, one to store the "real" hostname and one to save the "cloaked" hostname. And both fields can be set independently using the "METADATA host" and "METADATA cloakhost" commands. This allows "foreign servers" (aka "IRC services") to alter the real and cloaked hostnames of clients without problems, even when the user itself issues additional "MODE +x" and "MODE -x" commands.

RPL_UMODEIS: send correct target name, even on server links

Client_HostnameCloaked() -> Client_HostnameDisplayed()

platformtest.sh: Only generate configure script when missing

Update platformtest.sh to follow autoconf changes

Test suite: correctly execute tests when stdout is redirected

Add a few casts, fix compiler warnings on NetBSD 5 This fixes a few warnings of this type: XXX.c: In function 'AAA': XXX.c:YY: warning: array subscription has type 'char' Tested on NetBSD 5.0.2 with gcc 4.1.3.

conf.c: Use strlcpy() instead of strcpy() This fixes the following warning of gcc on OpenBSD 5.0: conf.c:728: warning: strcpy() is almost always misused, please use strlcpy()

tool.h: Don't check for and #define PF_INET This is correctly handled by ipaddr/ng_ipaddr.h today, and the check in tool.h isn't required any more -- and caused errors on OpenBSD 5.0: In file included from ./../tool/tool.h:23: /usr/include/arpa/inet.h:74: warning: "struct in_addr" declared inside parameter list

conf-ssl.h: Use "gnutls_session_t" instead of "gnutls_session" This fixes the following warning with current versions of GnuTLS: conf-ssl.h:36: warning: "gnutls_session" is deprecated

Add new IRC+ server flag "X": "XOP modes supported" This flag indicates, that the server supports the enhanced "xop channel user modes", like channel owner, admin, and halfop. This information is used to make sure that no unsupported CHANINFO commands are sent to servers not supporting such mode prefixes, for example.

Remove Anope "ngircd" protocol module patches Starting with Anope 1.9.8, the ngIRCd protocol module is included in the Anope distribution, so there's no longer any need to support our own (but now heavily outdated!) patches. Therefore remove them.

doc/Services.txt: Update documentation for Anope 1.9.8 Starting with Anope 1.9.8, the ngIRCd protocol module is rewritten from scratch by "DukePyrolator" and included in the Anope distribution. So no patching is required any more, yeah! Drawback: Anope 1.9.8 is in development and not yet released ...

Correctly add irc-metadata.{c|h} to Makefile.ng ...
