Hello,

I've started a PR to work on that issue. For the moment it's WIP but I've already added Hoa\Irc\Socket properties and also updated the transport wrapper behaviour.

Some questions about the IRC specification on which I can't found answers reading RFCs.

By default, the entity defined in the URL is considered as a channel but :

• Is this true even if the entity doesn't start with # or %23 ?
• Is it an error to use an URL like irc://host.com/channel to join ?

I've also added two "TODO" in the code around :

• entity parsing when entity is a user ;
• options validation.

I'll continue working on using socket properties inside the Node / Client asap.
