core: backend autoconnection: A new Connection/autoconnect_backend param can be set for a profile or component to be started automatically with backend. This is specially useful for components, but can be useful for client profile too (e.g. on Android we need to start profile with backend to get notifications, this part will come with following commits). The new Sqlite.getIndParamValues method allows to retrieve the same parameters for all profiles.

ping: get response time of an XMPP entity
=========================================

``ping`` is more or less the equivalent of the command of the same name on most OSes, but
for XMPP. It send a `XEP-0199`_ PING and wait for the answer. When (and if) received, the
time to receive the answer is shown, else the time to receive the error message is shown.
This can be helpful to quickly test the connection with the server or a device.

If you need to get only the response time (without text around), you may use ``-d,
--delay-only``.
