Title: WIP extend irc

Planned changes to IRC bot:
* clean shutdown - DONE
* force polls - TODO
* use ForceScheduler - POSTPONED until irc users support is done

I'm making the pull request now because I want some feedback regarding the implementation of the shutdown command:
* It's already inside the target process, so i'm not sure if sending a signal is the best option for an immediate shutdown...
* Should I propagate allowShutdown up to IrcStatusBot/IRCContact or is propagating it to IrcStatusFactory good enough?
