Add custom status

[ilsubyeega]

Since I could not find about when a guild member changed custom status on Change Log.

It seems to be in the (undocumented) /users/@me/settings endpoint.

Correction: that endpoint causes persistence into the next session, but not the current one.
there's a gateway thing to do too.

Blocked before being processed with a bot account. This documentation only documents bot endpoints, so far.

Custom statuses are activities with a type of 4, a name of Custom Status, the actual custom status in the state field, and a new emoji field for the main emoji. Bots aren't blocked from doing this, but... well, read the docs: https://discordapp.com/developers/docs/topics/gateway#activity-object.

Bots are only able to send name, type, and optionally url.

As bots cannot send states or emojis, they can't make effective use of custom statuses. The header for a "Custom Status" shows up on their profile, but there is no actual custom status, because those fields are ignored.

Feel free to add docs for custom emoji (the emoji struct + new type) in the activities docs.

As for bot support for custom status. It should be trivial for us to add and I'll loop back the product team into adding it.

@jhgg what file does that go in? I'm a bit lost.

@SIGSTACKFAULT there's a PR open already for custom status, #1162
