There's a long explanation in the code of this commit that says this:
> TL;DR OF THE BELOW: if the first parameter looks like a channel in
> addition to message type, then filter by channel. Otherwise, don't
> filter by channel.
>
> Here's the issue: plugins are *usually* multiplexed by channel. But
> that's only for messages that target channels, such as PRIVMSG and JOIN.
> For non-channel messages, such as server status messages (such as 001 on
> connect, or 372 for MOTD, etc) we want to ignore the channel aspect of
> plugin multiplexing. In order to accomplish this, we just check if the
> first parameter looks like a channel - i.e., starts with an octothorpe #.

This allows plugins to specify the types of messages they handle. This
will be used specifically for the nickserv plugin, but could be useful
for other things too.

Plugins now use Bots instead of server_configs, this is useful for
checking the currently joined channels and perhaps using the connection
when there isn't one available in the current method.

* on_connect is called on all plugins on the first message received from
the IRC server
* joined_channels property gets all of the channels that this bot has
currently joined in IRC

This sets up a set of ropes and pulleys that signal the `Bot.keepalive`
function to clean things up after a quit signal has been sent. This
allows plugins to define an `on_unload` function to save any important
datas on intentional exit.

This is beneficial for all plugins so the bot doesn't accidentally
spam things because the plugin writer didn't check their inputs
