Updates for federated/Yahoo buddies: First, set Member type to EmailMember instead of PassportMember for federated buddies when working with the AL/BL Membership lists. Second, add the MSN.IM.BuddyType annotation to the those same operations for federated buddies. Finally, always update the AL/FL when receiving a federated buddy from the AB, since the previous changes should fix these updates. References #3322. References #6755.
