Background
What does this PR do?
Adds clientConfig to Character type and handle ignore DM and ignore bots logic in Telegram & Discord clients
What kind of change is this?
An improvement to prevent abuse
Why are we doing this? Any context or related work?
Bots keep draining each other's credits in #the-arena. On Telegram, they are also affected by buy bots etc. I think "ignoreBots" configuration option is needed. DMs are also a concern because it's easy to purchase Telegram/Discord accounts and drain anyone's credits. The "[IGNORE]" feature alone is not a sufficient solution.
Testing
Add
"clientConfig": { "discord": { "shouldIgnoreBotMessages": true, "shouldIgnoreDirectMessages": true }, "telegram": { "shouldIgnoreBotMessages": true, "shouldIgnoreDirectMessages": true } }
to character.json file. All fields are optional.
