It's almost June! Updates:

- Move config handling into separate module
- Implement identify and status commands, currently only supporting the admin account defined in the config. Closes #1.
- Move proto.add_cmd to utils.py, rename _msg() to msg()
- Allow sending the command name as an optional argument in add_cmd
- Add catch-all exception handling in plugins to prevent them from crashing the program!
