component AP gateway: JID/node ⟺ AP outbox conversion: - convert a combination of JID and optional pubsub node to AP actor handle (see `getJIDAndNode` for details) and vice versa - the gateway now provides a Pubsub service - retrieve pubsub node and convert it to AP collection, AP pagination is converted to RSM - do the opposite: convert AP collection to pubsub and handle RSM request. Due to ActivityStream collection pagination limitations, some RSM request produce inefficient requests, but caching should be used most of the time in the future and avoid the problem. - set specific name to HTTP Server - new `local_only` setting (`True` by default) to indicate if the gateway can request or not XMPP Pubsub nodes from other servers - disco info now specifies important features such as Pubsub RSM, and nodes metadata ticket 363

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``.
