Check nicks on the IRC listener with the HTTP API's rule (closes #142)

The nick rule moves from internal/handlers to internal/service as
ValidNick, and the HTTP API and both IRC listener NICK paths call it.
The IRC listener used to cut a nick to 32 bytes and accept anything
else, so a nick with spaces such as "bob PRIVMSG #inj :hi" made the
lines built from it read as another user's PRIVMSG. It now answers a
nick the rule refuses with ERR_ERRONEUSNICKNAME (432), before and
after registration, and keeps the nick as it was.
