[IRCServices] ircservices bugs-cosmetic fixes

[Craig Wood]

ok, i know where you are coming from :)
when Services change the topic Mirc (or any other client) presume the nick 
at the end is part of the topic.
conciquently, when you try to change the topic thru channel central (or 
whatever your IRC Program is) it will still presume that the nick is part of 
the topic.
This is not services problem. This is an IRC problem. So yes the op will 
have to remove the nick from the end of the topic.
