outputFilters receive as parameters the message to be filtered and the message
type (like PRIVMSG).  Filters are useful for things like spell checkers and
colorizers.  Yet people will often want to condition the filtering on the
destination of the message.  I wrote a colorizer script and it was brought to my
attention that messages directed to bots like ChanServ or Nickserv should not be
filtered by the colorizer.  Plus netiquette dictates that some channels don't
want people to colorize their text.  In order to implement this condition, it
seems necessary that the outputFilter functions receive a third parameter for
the destination of the message.

Seems fine :-)

rginda, could you review this? Would be another bit of 0.9.68 getting into
trunk cvs.
