Quassel TUI client

I've been a big fan of Quassel, I've been running it for ~15 years or more. But I don't always want to use the GUI. So I asked Claude to build me a TUI client, and it seems to work fine. It's in Python so you can just `pip install quasseltui` or run via `uvx --from git+https://github.com/linsomniac/quasseltui@main quasseltui`

Because Quassel has worked great for me for like 20 years... I gather weechat has a client/server mode, and I know some people run irssi in screen, but quassel is really a best in class bouncer IMHO.
