plugin XEP-0447: handle attachment and download: - plugin XEP-0447 can now be used in message attachments and to retrieve an attachment - plugin attach: `attachment` being processed is added to `extra` so the handler can inspect it - plugin attach: `size` is added to attachment - plugin download: a whole attachment dict is now used in `download` and `file_download`/`file_download_complete`. `download_uri` can be used as a shortcut when just a URI is used. In addition to URI scheme handler, whole attachment handlers can now be registered with `register_download_handler` - plugin XEP-0363: `file_http_upload` `XEP-0363_upload_size` triggers have been renamed to `XEP-0363_upload_pre_slot` and is now using a dict with arguments, allowing for the size but also the filename to be modified, which is necessary for encryption (filename may be hidden from URL this way). - plugin XEP-0446: fix wrong element name - plugin XEP-0447: source handler can now be registered (`url-data` is registered by default) - plugin XEP-0447: source parsing has been put in a separated `parse_sources_elt` method, as it may be useful to do it independently (notably with XEP-0448) - plugin XEP-0447: parse received message and complete attachments when suitable - plugin XEP-0447: can now be used with message attachments - plugin XEP-0447: can now be used with attachments download - renamed `options` arguments to `extra` for consistency - some style change (progressive move from legacy camelCase to PEP8 snake_case) - some typing rel 379

==================================================
pipe: send/receive data stream through shell pipes
==================================================

``pipe`` commands allow you to send or receive data stream through a Unix shell pipe.
Libervia will create a network connection (using XMPP and Jingle) between you an your
contact.

in
==

Receive data stream. Data will be send to stdout, so it can be piped out or simply print
to the screen. You can specify bare jids of entities to accept stream for, by default all
streams are accepted.

example
-------

Receive a video stream, and redirect it to mpv_ so show the video::

  $ li pipe in | mpv -

.. _mpv: https://mpv.io/

out
===

Send data stream. Data comes from stdin, so you may use pipe in something or just write
some text.

The only expected argument is the full jid of the device where the stream must be piped
out.

example
-------

Send a video to louise::

 $ li pipe out louise@example.org/libervia.123 < some_video.webm

Send output from ``cal`` command to louise::

 $ cal | li pipe out louise@example.org/libervia.123
