Per the standards, IRC messages are limited to 512 bytes, including the command name (e.g., PRIVMSG) and the CR-LF line termination sequence (but excluding IRCv3 tags, if I recall correctly). In case not all IRC daemons respect this and someone tries to feed an irc-bot bot an excessively-long command argument to crash it, the framework should limit the length of incoming messages to the standard length.
