Automatically dm users for using non-gender neutral language when addressing the server

[ColeWalker]

Maybe when a message begins with "[hello|hi] guys|fellas" a dm could be sent to the offending user explaining why using gender neutral language is important.

I'm not against this. I also wonder what effect that will have on the general server if the only action we take is private.

Steps to getting this implemented:

1. the bot's (received) DMs to go to a private mod channel
   • Important because any response to the bot will otherwise go unanswered. Replying to the bot seems to be the easiest way to ask further questions if needed. This will also be needed for any future work related to automated moderation.
2. a public note of bot action (emoji reaction seems fine)
   • By doing this, we are removing the public conversation about what happened. When a bot takes action, there should always be a public notification that something happened. In this case I think adding an emoji reaction makes the most sense.
3. a page on the website that describes what "bot action" means
   • Due to the above, we also have to have something that explains what the emoji means. This is important for communicating the community's values and why things happen.
4. and finally the DM itself, plus content to send
   • The actual feature here. The DM should send to the user, the emoji reaction should be applied, the content of the DM action should be added to a moderation channel (because we don't have access to insert into the audit log via API) and the user should be able to reply to the DM.
