browser (cache): make `fill_identities` async + use `json` module:

| 91 dedicated to this on your XMPP server. For instance with `Prosody`_ you would enter | |
| 92 something like:: | |
| 93 | |
| 94 $ prosodyctl adduser libervia@example.net | |
| 95 | |
| 96 Where you'll obviously change ``libervia@example.net`` for the JID you want to use, with | |
| 97 your domain name. You'll then be prompted for a password. You can now create the | |
