No draft/metadata in WANTED_CAPS, and nothing reads or sets metadata keys.

It is the mechanism IRC grew for the things every other protocol here already shows -
an avatar, a display name, a status line - and on a network that offers it, moho shows
none of them while other clients do. It also gives moho somewhere to publish its own,
which is the half that makes the feature worth having rather than merely consuming.
