Goal
Because Discord messages characters limit is longer than IRC ones, this PR split a message to 400 characters chunks before sending them on IRC.
Note
This is just an implementation of the code in issue #28. I don't know why this code wasn't implemented before so I just create this PR to make the work easier.
I tested it on my personnal Discord/IRC channels and it fix #28.
Idea
It's working but it's a bit crude, as it cut words to create chunks.
Maybe someone will find a way to cut chunks juste after the previous closest space, to avoid cutting words (I can't do it right now and I'm not a good Go developer).
