ISUPPORT to indicate which commands accept masks
Some commands (like WHO) sometimes accept masks, but without any way for the client to discover this functionality.
Add an informational ISUPPORT (ala TARGMAX) to indicate which commands support masks.
note that we'll need some subtlety here, because some commands accept multiple types of targets (nick/channel/server), and may only allow masks for some.
There's also the issue of WHO masks being unclear on what is being matches (eg. some servers include GECOS)
List of commands which might accept masks for nicks and channels: NAMES, LIST (already covered by ELIST), WHO, WHOIS, WHOWAS, USERHOST.
WHOWAS too
