Add irc_format module that removes mIRC control codes (bold, color, italic, underline, reverse, strikethrough, monospace, reset) before forwarding to Owncast. Color codes with fg/bg digit params are consumed correctly. Multi-byte UTF-8 (emoji, accented chars, CJK) is preserved. Made-with: Cursor

Date: 2026-03-12
Task
IRC messages forwarded to Owncast contained mIRC formatting control codes (\x02, \x03, \x0F, etc.) that rendered as garbage glyphs since Owncast doesn't support any message styling.
