feat: implement IRC numerics batch 2 — connection registration, channel ops, user queries (#59)

## Summary

Implements the remaining important/commonly-used IRC numeric reply codes, as requested in [issue #52](#52).

### Connection Registration (001-005)
- **002 RPL_YOURHOST** — "Your host is <server>, running version <ver>"
- **003 RPL_CREATED** — "This server was created <date>"
- **004 RPL_MYINFO** — "<server> <version> <usermodes> <chanmodes>"
- **005 RPL_ISUPPORT** — CHANTYPES=#, NICKLEN=32, CHANMODES, NETWORK=neoirc, CASEMAPPING=ascii

All sent automatically after RPL_WELCOME during session creation/login.

### Server Statistics (251-255)
- **251 RPL_LUSERCLIENT** — user count
- **252 RPL_LUSEROP** — operator count
- **254 RPL_LUSERCHANNELS** — channel count
- **255 RPL_LUSERME** — local client count

Sent during connection registration and available via LUSERS command.

### Channel Operations
- **MODE command** — query channel modes (324 RPL_CHANNELMODEIS + 329 RPL_CREATIONTIME) and user modes (221 RPL_UMODEIS)
- **NAMES command** — query channel member list (reuses 353/366)
- **LIST command** — list all channels with member counts (322 RPL_LIST + 323 end)

### User Queries
- **WHOIS command** — 311 RPL_WHOISUSER, 312 RPL_WHOISSERVER, 319 RPL_WHOISCHANNELS, 318 RPL_ENDOFWHOIS
- **WHO command** — 352 RPL_WHOREPLY, 315 RPL_ENDOFWHO

### Database Additions
- `GetChannelCount()` — total channel count for LUSERS
- `ListAllChannelsWithCounts()` — channels with member counts for LIST
- `GetChannelCreatedAt()` — channel creation time for RPL_CREATIONTIME
- `GetSessionCreatedAt()` — session creation time

### Other Changes
- Added `StartTime` to `Globals` struct for RPL_CREATED
- Updated README with comprehensive documentation of all new commands and numerics
- Updated roadmap to reflect implemented features

`docker build .` passes (lint, tests, build all green).

-#### MODE — Set/Query Modes (Planned)
+#### MODE — Query Modes
 
-Set channel or user modes.
+Query channel or user modes. Returns the current mode string and, for
+channels, the creation timestamp.
 
 **C2S:**
 ```json
-{"command": "MODE", "to": "#general", "params": ["+m"]}
+{"command": "MODE", "to": "#general"}
-{"command": "MODE", "to": "#general", "params": ["+o", "alice"]}

 ```
 
-**Status:** Not yet implemented. See [Channel Modes](#channel-modes) for the
+**S2C (via message queue):**
-planned mode set.
+
+For channels, the server sends RPL_CHANNELMODEIS (324) and
+RPL_CREATIONTIME (329):
+```json
+{"command": "324", "to": "alice", "params": ["#general", "+n"]}
+{"command": "329", "to": "alice", "params": ["#general", "1709251200"]}
+```
+
+For users, the server sends RPL_UMODEIS (221):
+```json
+{"command": "221", "to": "alice", "body": ["+"]}
+```
+
+**Note:** Mode changes (setting/unsetting modes) are not yet implemented.
+Currently only query is supported.
 
 **IRC reference:** RFC 1459 §4.2.3
 
+#### NAMES — Channel Member List
+
+Request the member list for a channel. Returns RPL_NAMREPLY (353) and
+RPL_ENDOFNAMES (366).
+
+**C2S:**
+```json
+{"command": "NAMES", "to": "#general"}
+```
+
+**IRC reference:** RFC 1459 §4.2.5
+
+#### LIST — List Channels
+
+Request a list of all channels with member counts. Returns RPL_LIST (322)
+for each channel followed by RPL_LISTEND (323).
+
+**C2S:**
+```json
+{"command": "LIST"}
+```
+
+**IRC reference:** RFC 1459 §4.2.6
+
+#### WHOIS — User Information
+
+Query information about a user. Returns RPL_WHOISUSER (311),
+RPL_WHOISSERVER (312), RPL_WHOISCHANNELS (319), and RPL_ENDOFWHOIS (318).
+
+**C2S:**
+```json
+{"command": "WHOIS", "to": "alice"}
+```
+
+**IRC reference:** RFC 1459 §4.5.2
+
+#### WHO — Channel User List
+
+Query users in a channel. Returns RPL_WHOREPLY (352) for each user followed
+by RPL_ENDOFWHO (315).
+
+**C2S:**
+```json
+{"command": "WHO", "to": "#general"}
+```
+
+**IRC reference:** RFC 1459 §4.5.1
+
+#### LUSERS — Server Statistics
+
+Request server user/channel statistics. Returns RPL_LUSERCLIENT (251),
+RPL_LUSEROP (252), RPL_LUSERCHANNELS (254), and RPL_LUSERME (255).
+
+**C2S:**
+```json
+{"command": "LUSERS"}
+```
+
+LUSERS replies are also sent automatically during connection registration.

 #### KICK — Kick User (Planned)
 
 Remove a user from a channel.
