This commit reverts db7ef3f02517f9f2a3c56829a22b9fad3c36e374
(though it keeps the year updates)
After discussion with several people, it seems better to mention
copyright owners explicitly. eg. https://reuse.software/faq/#vcs-copyright
explains the issue of using VCSs to track copyright.
As db7ef3f02517f9f2a3c56829a22b9fad3c36e374 only replaced mentions
of my name with 'The Limnoria Contributors', this commit only needs
to undo that + add one person who contributed to setup.py.
Starting with this commit, there should be no "original" text
in READMEs.
Instead, the entire text should be in docstrings, and READMEs
should be automatically generated from these docstrings.
Motivation:
* The same help is available both via IRC and in the README
(although the README can be more detailed, as only the first
paragraph will be shown on IRC)
* This will allow auto-generating plugin help on docs.limnoria.net
using the same content as the README, as it's sourced from the
docstrings
Additionally, this converts all READMEs from Markdown to ReST,
because the documentation already uses ReST, and other docstrings
in the codebase are in ReST for this reason.
Only a problem when the rules on allowed alias names were relaxed, in which case backslashes were duplicated
every time the bot restarted.
Also factor out '.' and '|' checks into needsEscaping function
The (faulty) detection of recursive Aliases was removed in
a656fd06930541103c70297825d6f5f5956ecc45, claiming that "our nesting
limit will catch issues now." However, nested Aliases weren't actually
increasing the nesting level.
Actually increasing the nesting level when an alias is executed restores
the intended behavior. Additionally, limiting the size of the
expanded arguments to an alias prevents exponential growth of memory
usage for certain malicious inputs/aliases.

Plugins which implement their own listCommands method should pass their
non-typically discoverable commands to Commands.listCommands via this
mechanism. This means that the de-duplication of commands is performed in one
spot instead of having each plugin implement it on their on in their
listCommands method.
