Code Issues Proposed changes

Update IRC bot nick registration process for OFTC 

The IRC bot nick registration process had Freenode-specific examples
and references, so switch those to reflect we're now using OFTC.
Also the weechat command-line syntax was outdated and did not work
with newer versions of the client, so fix that.
