The Cluster is the collection of all the Miranda nodes that the local system knows about.
It acts as a repeater: when the system wants to tell the other nodes about something, like a new user or a new topic, then a message is sent to the Cluster.
Elections, where ownership of the systems subscriptions is decided, is done by the Cluster.
When a new node connects to the system, the Cluster is notified.
