Updated ircu to 2.10.11.04.

List of changes since 2.10.04 is very large and code-oriented. The
authors seem to not maintain a user digestable list of changes.
See the ChangeLog for the full list of changes if you insist :)

Updated provided by Adrian Portelli in PR pkg/20531, with some changes
by me.
