Multiple Discord API connections opened when using multiple IRC connections with same bot

[Phoenix616]

When having the bridge connect with multiple different IRC connections that use the same Discord bot endpoint it still tries to create a connection to the Discord API for both bridges instead of just once resulting in it being ratelimited on first connect:

[17:34:07] [phoenix616] [INFO] - Connecting to Discord API...

This is kind of a bug and a kind of a feature request. The bridge was never designed to support this. It was very intentional that everything is separate and resources like this not be shared.

It has caused issues with some use cases but never enough to warrant changing properly. This is likely a version 2.0 type request but I am willing to consider it as it has come up in the past.
