A bot_message is sent when a message is sent to a channel by an integration
"bot". It is like a normal user message, except it has no associated user.
The bot_id tells you which bot sent this message. The username and icon to
use can be looked up by passing this to bots.info . Some bot_messages also include username
and/or icons properties. If present these override the default username or
icon for this bot.
