IRC messages should not exceed 512 bytes in length as per RFC 1459, and the IRC library in use doesn't transparently split long messages on this limit, which results in server truncating incoming messages.

Split long messages and send each chunk in a separate PRIVMSG. Mind the utf-8 multibyte encoding when splitting.

IRC messages should not exceed 512 bytes in length as per [RFC 1459](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1459#section-2.3), and the [IRC library](https://github.com/thoj/go-ircevent) in use doesn't transparently split long messages on this limit, which results in server truncating incoming messages. Split long messages and send each chunk in a separate _PRIVMSG_. Mind the utf-8 multibyte encoding when splitting.
