New configuration option "PAMIsOptional"

Browse Source 
When "PAMIsOptional" is set, clients not sending a password are still
allowed to connect: they won't become "identified" and keep the "~"
character prepended to their supplied user name.

If ngIRCd is compiled with PAM support this can be used to disable all calls

\fBPAMIsOptional\fR (boolean)
When PAM is enabled, all clients are required to be authenticated using PAM;
connecting to the server without successful PAM authentication isn't possible.
If this option is set, clients not sending a password are still allowed to
connect: they won't become "identified" and keep the "~" character prepended

Please note:
To make some use of this behavior, it most probably isn't useful to enable
"Ident", "PAM" and "PAMIsOptional" at the same time, because you wouldn't be
able to distinguish between Ident'ified and PAM-authenticated users: both
don't have a "~" character prepended to their respective user names!
Default: no.
