component AP gateway: work around encoding bug in Mastodon: Mastodon in wrongly unquoting URL path in `(request-target)`, and thus Libervia was doing the same to check signature. However that doesn't work with Pleroma which is using the path value used in the request (percent-encoded), and thus Pleroma signature were rejected. To work around that, signature is first checked without unquoting, and if this fails a new check is done with unquoting. Bug has been reported at https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/18871 rel 371

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``.
