v3.0.0

bottom is a small no-dependency async library for running simple or complex IRC clients and requires python 3.12+

It's easy to get started with built-in support for common commands, and extensible enough to support any capabilities, including custom encryption, local events, bridging, replication, custom- and multi- syntax compatibility, and more.

---

This release fixes bottom for python 3.12+ after the library has been in broken state for a few years. The migration guide is substantial as nearly the whole codebase has been documented, typed, tested, and made more extensible.
