core (xmpp): make `send` a blocking method, fix `sendMessageData` calls:
original `send` method is blocking, and it is used as such by Wokkel and thus can't be
changed to an async method easily. However, an Async method is necessary to have an async
trigger at the very end of the send workflow for end-to-end encryption. To workaround
that, `send` is an async method which call `a_send`, an async method which actually does
the sending. This way legacy method can still call `send` while `a_send` can be await
otherwise.
Fix calls to `sendMessageData`: the method now being an `async` one, `ensureDeferred` had
to be used in some calls.

=============================== avatar: retrieve/upload avatars =============================== Avatars are images associated to an XMPP entity. Several XMPP extensions are in use, Libervia tries to hide the technical details so avatar are as easy as possible to manipulate for end-user. get === Retrieve the avatar of the given entity. Entity jid is specified as positional argument. If an avatar is found, a path to its cached file is printed. Please note that this is the cache used by all Libervia ecosystem, **do not modify the cached image**. You may use it for read-only access, or copy it if you want to modify the image. You may use the ``-s, --show`` argument to display the found avatar. The software used to display the image can be specified in Libervia configuration (cf. :ref:`configuration`), in the ``[li]`` section: the ``image_cmd`` setting let you specify the path to the software. If ``image_cmd`` is not used, ``li`` will try some common software, and if none is found, it will try to open the image in a browser (which may sometimes result in using the default image software of the platform). When available, cached avatar is 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 the avatar of ``louise@example.org`` and display it:: $ li avatar get --show louise@example.org set === Upload and set the given avatar for the profile. The only required argument is the path to the image to use as avatar. example ------- Set the avatar of the default profile:: $ li avatar set ~/photos/some_photo.jpg
