Description

When Vortex is configured to use timeouts instead of a muted role, triggering an automated mute punishment by giving a strike to a user does not apply any punishment, just logs the strike.

Seems like the part of the code responsible for this wasn't updated to support timeouts:
https://github.com/jagrosh/Vortex/blob/e64f73b166cdb17da73c887bd1d70360207c7923/src/main/java/com/jagrosh/vortex/automod/StrikeHandler.java#L148

This section should be changed to timeout the user if no muted role is set, as well as checking for the `MODERATE_MEMBERS` permission instead of `MANAGE_ROLES` when that's the case.

Research direction

Start in src/main/java/com/jagrosh/vortex/automod/StrikeHandler.java around line 148 and trace the automated mute punishment path when a strike is given. Check the configured muted-role and timeout cases, including their required Discord permissions. Done means strikes apply the configured punishment in both modes and use the corresponding permission check.
