Update to Discord.JS v14

[aronson]

I updated the application.

Fixed some bugs/annoyances too:

• No longer crashes when typing in a VC text channel in Discord
• Changed default Discord->IRC username mapping to use displayName instead of username
• Partial role matching was annoying in my testing so I guarded it with a new config, feel free to undo
• Updated Winston to fix logging on some newer node versions

Problems:

• I had to disable @ everyone pings because I'm not sure how to enable them
• If you try to bind to a non-text Discord channel by ID or name it'll crash the app. I suggest not doing this

Much appreciated. I'm merging this with my own fork and testing...

The merged code seems to be working.

One change that I can see is that the "SERVER MEMBERS INTENT Required for your bot to receive events listed under GUILD_MEMBERS." is now required whereas the old version didn't need it. Other than that, everything seems to have worked like a charm.

Continuing to work on this project, I made a number of fixes/changes and also converted the application to typescript (which should not affect end-users).

Changes that affect end-users:

• I added a new config property, allowRoleMentions, true by default (the original behavior)
• Related: role mentions were disabled by default before this comment, they're re-enabled now
• I merged in the /names command PR from Kage
• Network calls now use async/await where possible, potentially improving performance under load

Developer-relevant changes:

• I switched to yarn, but you don't have to
• I switched to tsx as the runner and removed the compilation step
• I changed the linting rules
• I installed prettier and ran it on everything
• I re-worked the overall package.json, removing now unused dependencies
• Sources are now in src/ instead of lib/

I made opinionated development changes and foolishly opened this PR against my main branch instead of a contribute branch, so these changes are also in this PR. I now understand this project is not actively maintained so I don't think it will be an issue.

I attempted to remove the GuildMembers intent as dustwolf mentioned above, but it seems it's necessary for the bot. Without it messages will not make it through the bridge. Not sure why that changed.
