    Log Message:
    ircd: enforce optional services TLS policy across the full route

    Add independent RequireTLS settings for BBS services and the embedded authority, both disabled by default. Protect authentication, private
    account and memo commands, and account/channel changes while keeping
    HELP, public INFO, and LOGOUT available without TLS. Check client and
    server transports before dispatch and recheck pending private replies.

    Negotiate CLIENTTLS to report each owning server's client connections.
    Keep reports on the user object, reject foreign ownership and conflicting security claims, and preserve legacy links without sending new commands
    to incapable peers. Unknown paths cannot satisfy an enabled TLS policy.

    Report complete client-to-client WHOIS security using numeric 671 only
    for an entirely encrypted path. Explain plaintext or unknown paths with
    320, and reassess forwarded WHOIS replies at the requesting server.

    Also accept both native CryptLib error spellings for missing optional certificate attributes and certificate-chain exhaustion, without masking
    other validation failures. Bump SynchronetIRCd to 2.8 and document the
    settings and protocol behavior.

    Validation: 220 regression tests; native certificate validation and
    three-hub TLS/plaintext/reconnect integration; services interoperability through a legacy 2.0 relay; git diff --check.
