plugin app manager: add a way to create files: a `files` field can now be used to create files on the fly. Its value must be a dict where key are file names, and values are an other dict with file data. For now file data can only use the `content` key. Value of content will be written to the file. If a file already exists, it is not overwritten.

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``.

.. _XEP-0199: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0199.html
