Add mentions/pinging support #5

Description

Proposal

When replying to a message it shows what is being replied to, which is good, but doesn't replicate the expected behaviour where it mentions the user being replied to.

Similarly trying to @user someone from discord seemingly is impossible, even with <@[id]> (shows as @unknown-user)

This would probably be quirky to add, but very neat and make interactions across the bridge less siloed.

Possible Implementation

It may be worth considering adding possibly a !b userlist and !b mention [name or userlist id or list of such]. That could usage could serve as an okay stop gap for detecting mentions in replies i.e. in a reply type of message you do !b mention [list] "[text]" and it just does a reply like usual but with a mention(s)

If there is a more automatic way to do it than introducing commands, then that would be no doubt better.
