plugin XEP-0277: post repeating implementation: Repeating a post as specified at https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0277.html#repeat is now implemented. On sending, one can either use the new `repeat` method (or the bridge `mbRepeat` one from frontends) to repeat any XEP-0277 item, or use the field `repeated` in microblog data's `extra`. This field must mainly contains the `by` field with JID of repeater (the "author*" field being filled with original author metadata), and the `uri` field with link (usually `xmpp:` one) to repeated item. When receiving a repeated item, the same `repeated` field is filled. rel 370

=========================================
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``.
