mod_vcard_muc: Add an alternative method of signaling avatar change When the avatar has been changed, a signal is sent that the room configuration has changed. Clients then do a disco#info query to find the SHA-1 of the new avatar. They can then fetch it as before, or not if they have it cached already. This is meant to be less disruptive than signaling via presence, which caused problems for some clients. If clients transition to the new method, the old one can eventually be removed. The namespace is made up while waiting for standardization. Otherwise it is very close to what's described in https://xmpp.org/extensions/inbox/muc-avatars.html

Introduction
============

Conversations (an XMPP client for Android) is publishing PEP avatars in the webp file format. However Pidgin and other XMPP desktop clients can only show vcard avatars, that are in the PNG file format. This module is the [mod_pep_vcard_avatar](https://modules.prosody.im/mod_pep_vcard_avatar.html) module extended to also change the avatar file format to PNG.

This module needs `dwebp` from `webp` package as an additional dependency.

Configuration
=============

Enable the module as any other:

    modules_enabled = {
      "mod_pep_vcard_png_avatar";
    }

You MUSTN'T load mod\_pep\_vcard\_avatar if this module is loaded.
