core, frontends: avatar refactoring:
/!\ huge commit
Avatar logic has been reworked around the IDENTITY plugin: plugins able to handle avatar
or other identity related metadata (like nicknames) register to IDENTITY plugin in the
same way as for other features like download/upload. Once registered, IDENTITY plugin will
call them when suitable in order of priority, and handle caching.
Methods to manage those metadata from frontend now use serialised data.
For now `avatar` and `nicknames` are handled:
- `avatar` is now a dict with `path` + metadata like `media_type`, instead of just a string
path
- `nicknames` is now a list of nicknames in order of priority. This list is never empty,
and `nicknames[0]` should be the preferred nickname to use by frontends in most cases.
In addition to contact specified nicknames, user set nickname (the one set in roster) is
used in priority when available.
Among the side changes done with this commit, there are:
- a new `contactGet` bridge method to get roster metadata for a single contact
- SatPresenceProtocol.send returns a Deferred to check when it has actually been sent
- memory's methods to handle entities data now use `client` as first argument
- metadata filter can be specified with `getIdentity`
- `getAvatar` and `setAvatar` are now part of the IDENTITY plugin instead of XEP-0054 (and
there signature has changed)
- `isRoom` and `getBareOrFull` are now part of XEP-0045 plugin
- jp avatar/get command uses `xdg-open` first when available for `--show` flag
- `--no-cache` has been added to jp avatar/get and identity/get
- jp identity/set has been simplified, explicit options (`--nickname` only for now) are
used instead of `--field`. `--field` may come back in the future if necessary for extra
data.
- QuickContactList `SetContact` now handle None as a value, and doesn't use it to delete the
metadata anymore
- improved cache handling for `metadata` and `nicknames` in quick frontend
- new `default` argument in QuickContactList `getCache`

================================================== pipe: send/receive data stream through shell pipes ================================================== ``pipe`` commands allow you to send or receive data stream through a Unix shell pipe. Salut à Toi 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:: $ jp 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:: $ jp pipe out louise@example.org/sat < some_video.webm Send output from ``cal`` command to louise:: $ cal | jp pipe out louise@example.org/sat
