Change the msim_msg_clone_element() function to respect the "dynamic_name" flag when cloning elements. This fixes the bug where buddies didn't appear in their correct groups the first time you sign in. The problem is that msim_add_contact_from_server() doesn't have the username, so it calls msim_lookup_user() and clones the contact_info. The problem is that the cloned version of the contact_info points to dynamic names which are freed before we get the response from the user lookup. So msim_add_contact_from_server_cb() is called and based the contact_info, but the names in the contact_info point to freed memory, so we couldn't lookup the uid or the group.
