New command! /setgrouplang allows group administrators to override user languages and force mattata to respond in the same language for everybody in the group!

We're having some DNS issues with our web properties. Messaging is alive and well, but your bot may have trouble reaching api.telegram.org until this is resolved. Working on this, back soon!

Sorry about that.

v23.1 alpha is already in development, and I've already made 2 new changes:
• redis:bgsave() is no longer called in the while true loop inside mattata:run() as it seemed to make the bot crash if memory was low
• /user will now display how many messages (that is, the ones mattata has counted) a user has sent in the current chat - this won't be the total amount unless mattata was added before the user and there was no downtime whilst the user spoke, however it's a pretty accurate representation!

All done, you can now override this by applying a new language from /setlang!

.....but what if you want to use the English version?

New command for moderators/administrators! If you can't make your mind up about banning a user, or you don't want to be held responsible for being the person to make the final decision on a user's future in your group, then fear not! This new command, /voteban, opens up a yes/no vote which allows the members of your group to decide the fate of a user. Only moderators/administrators can open vote-bans, but anybody can take part.

The minimum/maximum number of upvotes/downvotes needed to ban the user (or, if downvoting, dismiss the vote-ban) can be changed from the new section of /administration, "Vote-Ban Settings". Thank you to @Marshall_Leroy for the wonderful idea. Please remember to report any bugs using /br <information about bug>.

#FunFact I was the first developer to release a full update for a Telegram bot API framework that works with the latest update!

Finally, our DNS provider fixed it (took them a while, sorry).

You may still see some residual issues due to caching, but things will get back to normal very soon.

Added Polish translation, thanks to @GingerPlusPlus! If you're Polish, you can set this as your primary language with /setlang.
