Apparently StarChat.net uses a very old (?) or obscure NickServ
service that doesn't send any of the more common prompts for ID.
(It also doesn't support nick grouping, more's the pity.)
Wenet.ru uses control characters in the nickserv request. It sends something
like "\x02/NickServ IDENTIFY \x1Fpassword\x1F\x02", so no wonder the
CString:find() was failing.

On some networks, NickServ is named differently and this makes NickServ module unable to auto-ident.
This patch enables configuration of NickServ nickname to make it works on such IRC networks.
This includes a feature to ghost, which simply calls the ghost feature
of the actual nickserv. Same goes for group, recover and release.
These are called by simply doing /msg *nickserv ghost <nickname> etc.
The changes made actually explain themselves when doing something like
/msg *nickserv help. This is really just so we can be lazy and execute
nickserv commands that require a password without knowing the password
ourselves.
