- Add default MOTD with figlet-style ASCII art for neoirc
- Add MOTD server command so /motd can be re-requested
- Add /motd client command to display message of the day
- Add /query command to open DM tabs with optional message
- Add /clear command to clear messages in current tab
- Fix Firefox quick search conflict: global keydown handler
captures '/' and redirects focus to the input element
- Auto-focus input on SPA init and tab changes
- Show MOTD on resumed sessions (new sessions get it from
server automatically during creation)
- Update /help with new commands
- Style MOTD on login screen for better ASCII art display
## Summary
Complete UI overhaul of the embedded web SPA to look and feel like a proper IRC client.
## Changes
### Layout & Structure
- **Tab bar** at top with channel/DM/server tabs and unread indicators
- **Topic bar** below tabs for channel windows
- **Messages panel** with classic IRC message formatting
- **User list** on right side for channels with @/+/regular prefixes
- **Persistent input line** at bottom with IRC-style prompt `[nick] #channel >`
### IRC Commands
Full command support in the input line:
- `/join #channel` — Join a channel
- `/part [reason]` — Part the current channel
- `/msg nick message` — Send a private message
- `/me action` — Send a CTCP ACTION
- `/nick newnick` — Change nickname
- `/topic [text]` — View or set channel topic
- `/mode +/-flags` — Set channel modes
- `/quit [reason]` — Disconnect
- `/help` — Show available commands
### Message Display
- Messages on the **same line** as the nick: `[HH:MM:SS] <nick> message text`
- System messages: `[HH:MM:SS] * alice has parted #channel (reason)`
- Actions: `[HH:MM:SS] * alice waves hello`
- IRC vocabulary throughout ("parted" not "left", etc.)
### User List
- Right-side panel showing channel members
- Sorted by mode: `@operators` first, then `+voiced`, then regular users
- Click to open DM
- Parses RPL_NAMREPLY (353) for mode prefixes when available
### Other
- Input history with up/down arrow keys
- Dark theme with monospace font (classic IRC aesthetic)
- CTCP ACTION support (`/me`)
- RPL_TOPIC (332) parsing for server-sent topics
- Responsive: user list hidden on narrow screens

Backend:
- Session/client UUID model: sessions table (uuid, nick, signing_key),
clients table (uuid, session_id, token) with per-client message queues
- MOTD delivery as IRC numeric messages (375/372/376) on connect
- EnqueueToSession fans out to all clients of a session
- EnqueueToClient for targeted delivery (MOTD)
- All queries updated for session/client model
SPA client:
- Long-poll loop (15s timeout) instead of setInterval
- IRC message envelope parsing (command/from/to/body)
- Display JOIN/PART/NICK/TOPIC/QUIT system messages
- Nick change via /nick command
- Topic display in header bar
- Unread count badges on inactive tabs
- Auto-rejoin channels on reconnect (localStorage)
- Connection status indicator
- Message deduplication by UUID
- Channel history loaded on join
- /topic command support
