Implement member screening / verification #1065

Description

@rlnt

Request

I would like to see support for member screening / verification. This involves access to the server rules that you can configure in the guild settings' access tab.

Implementation

Implementing support for this feature involves working with undocumented API. Discord mentions that the screening feature is a work in progress and still receives changes, so they removed the documentation for it. As far as I am aware, this notice has been there for at least a year now, and nothing has changed.

There could even be custom convenience events when a user finishes the verification because it flips the pending boolean inside the guild member object. The documentation still shows which events are in use to track that progress.

Documentation for this process is also available on the unofficial user documentation: https://docs.discord.food/resources/guild#member-verification-object

Background

The reason why I want to see this feature is that I would love to introduce a single point of truth mechanism for server rules. Right now, when you enable member verification and edit the server rules, you would have to keep the other rule displays manually. Most server post their rules in a specific channel or make the rules available via a bot command. That would require keeping the server rules and the known bot rules or channel rules in sync manually. Instead, I would like to configure the rules in the verification settings only, fetch them via the bot, and update the channel message or command accordingly.
