Bot is updated for 9.0 Shadowlands!

What does the bot do?

In essence, it lets you quickly query current prices and other statistics for items, right from Discord.

It also is smart about recipes for crafted items, and can give recommendations on whether crafting an item from components, or buying the item outright is cheaper at any given moment. It can also be used to check margins on commonly sold items.

Also present in the repo is a Battle.net scraper (cmd/recipescraper) that populates recipe data for the bot.
