Migrate Dronefly to Red-DiscordBot 3.5 / discord.py 2.0

[synrg]

Other instances of Dronefly on dpy2:

• CuckooBee
  • dev instance
• SeedWasp
  • test instance

Cogs not yet ready upstream

• fifo
  • currently uninstalled. but if my PR is accepted, we'll be able to install from upstream
• firstmessage
  • currently uninstalled. but if my PR is accepted, we'll be able to install from upstream

One thing I'm playing with right now is using a local branch of Red with patches for the things that matter for our bots. This allows me to experiment with cogs from other Red cog developers, as well as work on new code for Dronefly.

An example of how this helps is Trusty has a lot of cogs we use, and he has dpy2 versions on his own branch, but that branch is unreleased and deliberately has a minimum 3.5.0 version set on it, so anyone trying out 3.5.0.dev1 on it can't load those cogs. However, by modifying the version# on my local Red branch, I'm able to try out those things early (but am on my own for support).

Cogs to try from Trusty's dpy2 branch:

• extendedmodlog
• retrigger
• serverstats
• welcome
• weather

Therefore, once I can confirm by testing each on CuckooBee, I'll load any of them that work onto SeedWasp (switching it, too, over to my local Red branch). Then I'll move on to the next repo, etc.

All of Trusty's dpy2 cogs now work. See updates to README.md.

Removed commandstats from cogs with issues, as it is now fixed. Thanks, flare!

[synrg]

Removed ebirdcog, fifo, firstmessage from cogs with issues, as ebirdcog is fixed, and fifo and firstmessage are now from https://github.com/synrg/Fox-V3/tree/dpy2.

[synrg]

Fix for rssnotifier in https://github.com/synrg/JackCogs/tree/dpy2 currently being tested.

Fifo still has issues:

I did some work on fifo + firstmessage, reworking my former patch to make then work with dpy2 into a backwards-compatible PR upstream should be able to merge into master: bobloy/Fox-V3#211

[synrg]

rssnotifier is now installed from Jack's default branch, v3. that just leaves Bobloy's cogs to switch over to his default branch once he merges his dpy2 stuff.

[synrg]

The migration is complete, even though there are some administrative tasks left to switch a couple of cogs over to release versions once they are released, so closing this issue.
