bug#65882: 29.1; rcirc doesn't rejoin channels automatically on reconnecting

[Philip Kaludercic <philipk@posteo.net>]

The change makes sense, but I'll want to try it out to make sure we are
doing the right thing.  Unless I write something here, ping me in a few
days.  These kinds of auto-reconnect bugs can be annoying to debug in
real-life situations.

So this patch would be applied without a copyright assignment, right?
