Complete IRCv3 SASL 3.2 login for PLAIN 
Turn the PLAIN verification exchange into a full account login:

- Advertise the mechanism list to the uplink as `saslmechlist` network
  metadata, so clients see `sasl=PLAIN` in CAP LS (SASL 3.2).
- On a valid response set the client's `accountname` metadata (drives
  RPL_LOGGEDIN 900) before reporting success (D S, drives 903); a bad
  credential or unknown mechanism reports failure (D F, drives 904).
- Reassemble the base64 response from the uplink's 400-byte AUTHENTICATE
  chunks, ending on a short chunk or a lone "+", with an upper bound to
  cap a pre-auth client's buffer.
- Log the user in on NickServ REGISTER and IDENTIFY too, through the same
  accountname metadata, and return the canonical account name from the
  store so the login keeps its registered casing.

Verified against irctest server_tests/sasl.py (PLAIN success/failure,
non-ASCII, no-authzid, chunked payloads, unknown mechanism, too-long,
retry) on InspIRCd + fedserv.

fedserv

A federated IRC services daemon in Rust. Protocol-agnostic core, InspIRCd link first.

Clean-room — inspired by the ideas behind modern event-log/gossip services, not derived from any project's source.

Design

  • proto/ — the ircd link layer. A Protocol trait maps raw server-to-server lines to/from a normalized NetEvent/NetAction model. The engine never touches a raw line, so a new ircd = one new module. InspIRCd is the first.
  • engine/ — the services engine: live network state, an EventLog (every persistent change is an Event; state is a fold over the log — this is what makes replicating across nodes a later addition, not a rewrite), and the Service trait.
  • services/ — the pseudo-clients: NickServ first, then ChanServ / OperServ / …

Run

cp config.example.toml config.toml   # edit uplink + link password
cargo run -- config.toml

Status

Early scaffold: links to an InspIRCd uplink and introduces NickServ. Burst/mode handling and account persistence are next.
