this comes with a recursion rewrite and simplification; it works
a bit more intuitively, now, but i still haven't figured out what
caused the bug that led me down this rabbit hole.
in any event, Alias now rules the roost when it comes to recursion,
which means it's a bit poorly named, but also means that there
won't (shouldn't) be multiple accidental runs for one output, caused
by multiple modules doing the recursion (despite only one really
having a legitimate reason to) --- a classic case of the intended
use of recursion (including the comment to only recurse when you
*know* the input is for you) being lost and forgotten with time
this also obsoletes meta.skip_recursion_scan. between this commit
and the last, people would be wise to revise their config files
this indicates that none of the modules could actually do anything with that
text, so whatever happened probably didn't fire any modules (and if it did,
they didn't provide return text anyway)
mostly for sending commands to the bot without addressing the bot with
bot: (and potentially triggering MegaHAL) yet also without exposing
sensitive commands to the non-addressable mode (like wtf/quit). speak
the alias and the bot will run the looked-up text through the modules,
regardless of their addressable settings
