Reloading modules sends CAP DEL followed by an immediate CAP NEW:
:staberinde.local CAP * DEL :account-tag
:staberinde.local CAP * NEW :account-tag
This isn't very nice. /modrestart is particularly bad. In order to avoid
doing this, we remember the capability set at the beginning of module
operations, compare that with the set afterwards, and report only the
differences with CAP {DEL,NEW}.
ENCAP module. The ms_encap function is responsible for dispatching the
command handler and then the modules will eventually be reloaded.
However, if the ENCAP module is reloaded to a different address, the
stack now contains the address of a function that no longer exists.
Also, in this version of the IRCd, the module restarting functionality
was located in a function that is itself located in a module, so things
will also go badly if that module is reloaded to a different address,
too.
Return immediately from the command handler and have the event loop
call the function responsible for reloading the modules instead.

There's no reason to really have these in the main ircd anymore, static
modules are dead and aren't coming back.
To ensure people don't do something hopelessly retarded, this is a core
module.
