Fix a minor crash when a user has no class after OnCheckReady.
This bug looks serious but it can only be triggered with a very unusual server configuration problem. If you haven't already had a crash then you probably aren't at any risk. The way this crash happens is: 1. InspIRCd::DoBackgroundUserStuff is called by the main loop. 2. In the switch statement curr->registered is set to REG_NICKUSER so InspIRCd::AllModulesReportReady is called. 3. InspIRCd::AllModulesReportReady calls the OnCheckReady event in m_cgiirc. 4. m_cgiirc calls RecheckClass which sets the user's class to NULL and calls LocalUser::SetClass followed by LocalUser::CheckClass. 5. The user doesn't match any classes in LocalUser::SetClass so LocalUser::CheckClass quits the user with with "Access denied by configuration". 6. Control flow returns to InspIRCd::DoBackgroundUserStuff when InspIRCd::AllModulesReportReady returns false. 7. The if statement at the end of InspIRCd::DoBackgroundUserStuff calls ConnectClass::GetRegTimeout on curr->MyClass. 8. ConnectClass::GetRegTimeout tries to access a member of this which is NULL. 9. The server crashes with a SEGFAULT.
