IRC rooms in config should start with #

It took me a while to realize this.

If they don't it can have undesired side effects (the whole delay_task
and loop_task mechanism will stop working and your log size will
increase dramatically).

this might be better reflected in the docs, as this only applies to IRC, whereas jabber/hipchat rooms don't require this. I'll give it a once over tomorrow.

Certainly.

The rationale of this PR was to fix the example config so that when anyone tries to just quickly edit it doesn't have to realize that the channel should start with #.

However, reflecting this in docs does certainly make sense.
