Support old (XEP v1.3) Entity Capabilities alongside the new ones. The ext structures from v1.3 are stored in a ref-counted structure that is shared among all instances of the ClientInfo that share the same 'node' (unique per client). exts are only used for v1.3-entity capabilities clients and are not shared with caps that specify the 'hash' attribute (required in v1.5). The jabber_caps_cbplususerdata is also ref-counted and will never leak, even if some disco#info responses from a client return errors.
