fix: remove await from bot.process_commands() call

Browse Source 
bot.process_commands() is a synchronous function that returns None,
not a coroutine. Using 'await' on it is incorrect and causes the
command dispatch to be silently ignored.

The fix is to call bot.process_commands(message) without await,
which allows prefix commands (like !join) to be properly dispatched
to their @bot.command() handlers.
