Libera requires SASL authentication to a NickServ account for IPv4 ranges from dedicated hosting providers like OVH and Scaleway/Online. This change implements SASL PLAIN to authenticate to nickserv at connection time through SASL instead of doing so in perform.ini, and as such, gain access to Libera servers.
