Better error message if the server starts throttling your connections #5

If you try connecting too much, SRL will start replying with this:

RECV: ERROR :Closing Link: [204.191.69.55] (Throttled: Reconnecting too fast) -Email irc@speedrunslive.com for more information.

Obviously, there's nothing you can do about that, but it does get stuck with the "connecting..." message, which was confusing until I turned on the debug mode. It could use a better message instructing the user to wait a minute.

I'd be cool with actually doing this myself if you want, I wanted to help out because I'm super interested in the whole co-op speedrun idea. Have to learn the ropes with lua first. (This is khananaphone, more of a tloz guy)

Happy to take pull requests if you want to give it a go! I think the best approach might be, if there's a disconnect and the last error sent can be identified AS an error, to print that to the debug window even in non-debug mode?

Development for me remains on hold until I get, uh, my computer back ^_^;
