James McCoy f5df6695c0 Alias: Restore recursion limit and limit memory use
The (faulty) detection of recursive Aliases was removed in
a656fd0693, 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.

README

EVERYONE:
---------
Read LICENSE.  It's a 3-clause BSD license, but you should read it
anyway.

USERS:
------
If you're upgrading, read RELNOTES.  There is also much documentation
at http://supybot.com/ for your perusal.  Please read it; we took the
time to write it, you should take the time to read it.

If you have any trouble, feel free to swing by #supybot on
irc.freenode.net or irc.oftc.net (we have a Supybot there relaying,
so either network works) and ask questions.  We'll be happy to help
wherever we can.  And by all means, if you find anything hard to
understand or think you know of a better way to do something,
*please* post it on Sourceforge.net so we can improve the bot!

WINDOWS USERS:
--------------
The wizards (supybot-wizard, supybot-newplugin, and
supybot-adduser) are all installed to your Python directory's
\Scripts.  What that *probably* means is that you'll run them like
this: C:\Python2x\python C:\Python2x\Scripts\supybot-wizard

DEVELOPERS:
-----------
We likewise have tons of developer documentation at
http://supybot.com/ for your learning adventures.  Have fun :)
