The help entry database structure has changed! You have to resync or purge
your database or your will get problems!
New features:
* Help entry access now fully controlled by evennia permissions
* Categories for each help entry
* All entries are created dynamically, with a See also: footer calculated
after the current state of the database.
* Indexes and topic list calculated on the fly (alphabetically/after category)
* Added auto-help help entries for all default commands.
* Only shows commands _actually implemented_ - MUX help db moved into 'MUX' category
which is not shown by default.
* More powerful auto-help markup - supports categories and permissions (and inheritance).
* Global on/off switch for auto-help, when entering production
* Auto_help_override switch for selectively activating auto-help when developing
new commands (like the old system).
* Refactored State help system; no more risk of overwriting global help entries.
* State help now defers to main help db when no match found; makes system more transparent.
* State help entries also support categories/permissions (state categories are not
used much though).
Other updates:
* Added more commands to the batch processor
* Many bug-fixes.

- changed @chperm to @setperm to avoid confusion with channel commands
- added @setgroup command for adding user group permissions
- Moved permissions/group setup into settings file to allow admins to tweak without going into evennia engine.
- Add all new players to default permission group (defined in settings)
- Defined a basic group hierarchy, removed permission 'genperms.builder' in favour of a group named builders instead, containing all relevant permissions.
- Filtered out all django's automatic permissions in @setperm/list to make permission system more controlled by admin.
- Probably fixed bug that caused new users to not be signed up to channels (more testing needed)
- Added Exception handler in unloggedin method create, this was killing tracebacks upon user creation.

At the moment this only works with the initial IRC channel (the one set in preferences),
those channels you add later with @ircjoin does not add as Services; when setting it up
they add just fine, but the bot does not connect - I don't know why (code is commented out
in src/commands/irc.py).

Added some more helper commands and changed a bit under the hood on those
previously committed for mapping irc/imc channels to each other.
There seems to be an issue with IMC2 users seeing an echo back to themselves when talking. Investigating.
