Allow moderators to define a blacklist for usernames and nicknames. This is intended for not letting users with offensive names participate in the server.

Suggested implementation:

If a user joins or changes their username to a name that is in the blacklist, the user immediately receives a timeout and becomes unable to intereact with the server. They then receive a message that their username is in violation of the server's username policy ( / their username is offensive / etc.), and that they have to change their username if they want to stay in the server. If the username is not changed within a reasonable amount of time, the user will be kicked from the server.

If a user changes their nickname (but not username) to a name that is in the blacklist, their nickname should immediately be reset and they should receive a message stating why.

In both cases, a notification should be sent in a moderator channel (if one is defined).
