This release contains all changes from 2.0-alpha3 as well as the following:
#### New features
- **Added TLS certificate verification, which is now enabled by default on Clientbot networks**.
- **Added TLS certificate verification, which is now enabled by default on Clientbot networks**. [issue#592](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/592)
- This adds the options `ssl_validate_hostname` and `ssl_accept_invalid_certs` options which have defaults as follows:
- | Server type | `ssl_validate_hostname` | `ssl_accept_invalid_certs` |
|--------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------|----------------------------|
| Full links (S2S) | false (implied by `ssl_accept_invalid_certs: true`) | true |
| Clientbot networks (C2S) | true | false |
- `ssl_validate_hostname` determines whether certificates will be checked for a matching hostname
- `ssl_accept_invalid_certs` disables certificate checking entirely when enabled and also turns off `ssl_validate_hostname`
- The existing TLS/SSL certificate fingerprint options are unchanged by this and can be turned on and off regardless of these new options' values.
- `ssl_validate_hostname` determines whether a network's TLS certificate will be checked for a matching hostname.
- `ssl_accept_invalid_certs` disables certificate checking entirely when enabled, and also turns off `ssl_validate_hostname`.
- The existing TLS certificate fingerprint options are unchanged by this and can be turned on and off regardless of these new options.
- New Relay features:
- **LINKACL now supports whitelisting networks in addition to the original blacklist implementation** (see `help LINKACL`). [issue#394](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/394)
- Defaults for relay CLAIM (on or off) and LINKACL mode can now be configured for new channels.[issue#581](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/581)
- relay: The defaults for CLAIM (on or off) and LINKACL (whitelist or blacklist mode) can now be pre-configured for new channels. [issue#581](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/581)
- You can now set descriptions for channels in `LINKED` via the `CHANDESC` command. [issue#576](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/576)
- `relay_clientbot` now supports setting clientbot styles by network. [issue#455](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/455)
- New `relay::allow_free_oper_links` allows disabling oper access to `CREATE/LINK/DELINK/DESTROY/CLAIM` by default
- IPv4/IPv6 address selection is now automatic, detecting when an IPv6 address or bindhost is given. [issue#212](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/212)
- New Antispam features:
- Antispam now supports text filtering with configured bad strings; see the `antispam:` example block. [issue#359](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/359)
- Added `block` as a punishment to only hide messages from other plugins like relay
- Antispam can now process PMs to PyLink clients for spam - this can be limited to service bots, enabled for all PyLink clients (including relay clones), or disabled entirely (the default)
- IRC formatting (bold, underline, colors, etc.) is now removed before processing text
- Added `block` as a punishment to only hide messages from other plugins like relay. [issue#616](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/616)
- Antispam can now process PMs to PyLink clients for spam - this can be limited to service bots, enabled for all PyLink clients (including relay clones), or disabled entirely (the default).
- IRC formatting (bold, underline, colors, etc.) is now removed before processing text. [issue#615](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/615)
- Messages sent by most commands are now transparently word-wrapped to prevent cutoff. [issue#153](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/153)
- The Global plugin now supports configuring exempt channels. [issue#453](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/453)
- Automode now allows removing entries by entry numbers. [issue#506](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/506)

- Relay feature changes:
- Relay IP sharing now uses a pool-based configuration scheme (`relay::ip_share_pools`), deprecating the `relay::show_ips` and `relay_no_ips` options.
- IPs and real hosts are shared between all networks in an ipshare pool,
- **KILL handling received a major rework**:
- Instead of always bouncing, kills to a relay client can now be forwarded between networks in a killshare pool (`relay::kill_share_pools`)
- **KILL handling received a major rework** ([issue#520](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/520):
- Instead of always bouncing, kills to a relay client can now be forwarded between networks in a killshare pool (`relay::kill_share_pools`).
- If the sender and target's networks are not in a killshare pool, the kill is forwarded as a kick to all shared channels that the sender
has CLAIM access on (e.g. when they are the home network, whitelisted in `CLAIM`, and/or an op)
- The PyLink service client no longer needs to be in channels to log to them

#### Bug fixes
- Fixed ping timeout handling (this was broken sometime during the port to select)
- relay: block networks not on the claim list from merging in modes when relinking (better support for modes set by e.g. services DEFCON)
- Reworked relay+clientbot op checks on to [be more consistent](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/compare/fee64ece045ad9dc49a07d1b438caa019c90a778~...d4bf407)

- inspircd: fix potential desyncs when sending a kill by removing the target immediately. [issue#607](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/607)
- UserMapping: fixed a missing reference to the parent `irc` instance causing errors on nick collisions
- UserMapping: fixed a missing reference to the parent `irc` instance causing errors on nick collisions.
- clientbot: suppress warnings if `/mode #channel` doesn't show arguments to `+lk`, etc. [issue#537](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/537)
- Relay now removes service persistent channels on unload, and when the home network for a link disconnects
- relay: raise an error when trying to delink a leaf channel from another leaf network
- Relay now removes service persistent channels on unload, and when the home network for a link disconnects.
- relay: raise an error when trying to delink a leaf channel from another leaf network.
- Previously this would (confusingly) delink the channel from the network the command was called on instead of the intended target.
- opercmds: forbid killing the main PyLink client

#### Internal changes
- Login handling was rewritten and moved entirely from `coremods.corecommands` to `coremods.login`. [issue#590](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/590)
- New stuff for the core network classes:
- `is_privileged_service(entityid)` returns whether the given UID or SID belongs to a (preconfigured) privileged service (IRC U:line).
- User, Channel `ts` is now consistently stored as `int`s. [issue#594](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/594)
- `match_host()` was split into `match_host()` and `match_text()`; the latter is now preferred as a simple text matcher for IRC-style globs
- `is_privileged_service(entityid)` returns whether the given UID or SID belongs to a privileged service (IRC U:line).
- `User`, `Channel` TS values are now consistently stored as `int`. [issue#594](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/594)
- `match_host()` was split into `match_host()` and `match_text()`; the latter is now preferred as a simple text matcher for IRC-style globs.
- New stuff in utils:
- `remove_range()` removes a range string of (one-indexed) items from the list, where range strings are indices or ranges of them joined together with a "," (e.g. "5", "2", "2-10", "1,3,5-8")
- `remove_range()` removes a range string of (one-indexed) items from the list, where range strings are indices or ranges of them joined together with a "," (e.g. "5", "2", "2-10", "1,3,5-8") - [issue#506](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/506)
- `get_hostname_type()` takes in an IP or hostname and returns an int representing the detected address type: 0 (none detected), 1 (IPv4), 2 (IPv6) - [issue#212](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/212)
- `parse_duration()` takes in a duration string (in the form `1w2d3h4m5s`, etc.) and returns the equiv. amount of seconds [issue#504](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/504)
- `parse_duration()` takes in a duration string (in the form `1w2d3h4m5s`, etc.) and returns the equiv. amount of seconds - [issue#504](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/504)
- The TLS/SSL setup bits in `IRCNetwork` were broken into multiple functions: `_make_ssl_context(), `_setup_ssl`, and `_verify_ssl()`
- Removed deprecated attributes: `irc.botdata`, `irc.conf`, `utils.is*` methods, `PyLinkNetworkCoreWithUtils.check_authenticated()` - [issue#422](https://github.com/jlu5/PyLink/issues/422)
- PyLinkNCWUtils: The `allowAuthed`, `allowOper` options in `is_oper()` are now deprecated no-ops (they are set to false and true respectively)
