This supercedes #750 and fixes #749, #744.
The long and short of it is that escaping userids is a bit of a fail because the IRC bridge handles userids differently across the bridge and it is not an easy job to go around picking them out and converting them. Certainly the appservice-bridge library should not attempt to blanket apply escaping like this.
For now, this PR disables escaping to fix the issues that have popped up until I have time to fix this properly. I really hope we fix this properly.
Depends upon matrix-org/matrix-appservice-bridge#112
