[IRCServices] Faster AKILL Processing...

[Jason at GCN]

As we all know, having a large Akill list can really bog down services, 
espeacially on a large network.  Well now that Services supports an 
immediate AKILL option I know a way that services can process akills much 
more efficiently, however on older IRCD's it may not work so this should be 
a configurable option.

Currently Services tracks every user who connects to the network, and if a 
match is found, will issue a /KILL for that user.  What I am suggesting is 
as soon as Services connects to it's uplink, or whenever a new server 
connects to the network have Services send out it's entire AKILL list, and 
on the Supported servers, a KLINE will be added.

This option can take some extra weight off of Services as it no longer needs 
to check every connecting user for a match but instead it will spead out 
over all the IRCD's when they process their KLINEs.
