Overview

Implement the remaining standard IRC commands that most users won't immediately miss but complete the IRC experience.

Blocked by: #86 (Tier 2 must be merged first)

Requirements

User Commands

Command	Numeric	Description
`USERHOST nick [nick...]`	`302 RPL_USERHOST`	Quick lookup of user@host for specified nicks
`VERSION`	`351 RPL_VERSION`	Server version string
`ADMIN`	`256-259`	Server admin contact info
`INFO`	`371/374`	Server software info text
`TIME`	`391 RPL_TIME`	Server local time

Oper Commands

Command	Description
`KILL nick :reason`	Forcibly disconnect a user (server oper only)
`WALLOPS :message`	Broadcast message to all users with +w usermode

Notes

VERSION can reuse globals.Version
TIME returns server time in RFC format
ADMIN/INFO can return configurable or hardcoded strings
KILL requires is_oper check (from PR #82)
WALLOPS requires usermode +w tracking (new)

Scope

Do NOT start this until #86 (Tier 2) is merged.
