core (memory/encryption): set encrypted flag also for outgoing messages and put it in extra: - `encrypted` flag is now put directly in extra, so that there is nothing to change when sending the message to bridge for frontends to be aware of it. - this flag is now also set when markAsEncrypted is used, so frontend can display appropriate indicator to show that outgoing message is encrypted or not.

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``.
