Node: meta: IRC integration via github services deprecated

[jasnell]

FYI... @nodejs/tsc @nodejs/automation

We currently use Github Services integration to facilitate the connection to the node-dev IRC channel. That integration mechanism has been deprecated by GitHub and will be going away soon.

[devsnek]

that bot hasn't worked for a long long time anyway because the irc channel is +n

Given this Node.js issue is the top result in Google for github services deprecated irc, here is a link with more information and relevant discussion:

I thought I gave the bot the correct auth stuff...

[Fishrock123]

Oh, nope. I didn't. 😞

Any news on the bot?
I just checked the logs and it stopped posting on 12/25 just before the spambot attacked
It's excluded from the slurp but this is aprox the last time http://logs.libuv.org/node-dev/2017-12-25#20:44:52.542

[2017-12-25 16:18:54] <mylesborins> I've set /mode #yourchan +q $~a

/CC @MylesBorins (this might have blocked the IRCBot)

The bot needs to be authenticated to work

Should we change the bot to use the new API? Perhaps use a webhook if all we need is to just subscribe to events.
