plugin XEP-0384, XEP-0391: download missing devices list: when a peer jid was not in our roster, devices list was not retrieved, resulting in failed en/decryption. This patch does check it and download missing devices list in necessary. There is no subscription managed yet, so the list won't be updated in case of new devices, this should be addressed at some point.

=============================
identity: identity management
=============================

Identity use several XMPP extensions (like vcards) to retrieve or set informations about
an entity. For now it's really basic and only nickname and avatar are managed.

get
===

Retrieve informations about the identity behind an XMPP entity. You only have to specify
the jid of the entity, and you'll get (if set) his/her/its nickname and data about the
avatar.

When available, cached values are returned by defaut. If you want to ignore the cache, use
the ``--no-cache`` option (of course this can result in more network requests).

example
--------

Get identity information about an entity::

  $ li identity get somebody@example.org

set
===

Set identity data to the server, using various XMPP extensions. So far, you can only
change the nickname of an entity using ``-n, --nick`` or or more times

example
-------

Set 2 nicknames for default profile::

  $ li identity set -n toto -n titi
