To my understanding you can setup Quassel as a bouncer on a server, so when you reconnect it will update all you missed, you just need a cheap VPS or another desktop to connect through elsewhere. Some channels also have searchable logs via bots as well. Ironically BotBot.ME which is powered by redis doesn't have a bot at #redis but oh well...

That's not out-of-the-box

It is on linux. Ubuntu has the combined client and the separate client / server ones ready to go.

There are other out-the-box alternatives. IRCCloud was mentioned in comments.

IRCCloud disconnects you after 2 hours of idle time unless you pay them
