/**
* \class KviIrcConnection
* \brief An abstraction of a connection to an IRC server
*
* This class deals with the high-level logic of a connection to an IRC server.
* It's always attached to a KviIrcContext and thus to a KviConsoleWindow window.
* The connection has a KviIrcConnectionTarget object which specifies the
* data of the server that needs to be contacted and a KviUserIdentity object
* which specifies the user data to use.
*
* The connection is the upper layer of the KVIrc networking stack. It owns
* KviIrcLink which is the layer immediately below and which in turn contains
* a KviIrcSocket.
*
* The connection creates and manages a lot of objects that handle
* runtime information. These objects include a KviIrcConnectionUserInfo which
* contains the ACTUAL user information, KviIrcConnectionServerInfo which
* contains the ACTUAL server information, KviIrcUserDataBase which is
* substantially a big hash table containing all the users visible to KVIrc in
* this connection, a list of channels, a list of queries etc...
