Start watching the listener socket immediately after it's created instead of waiting until we receive confirmation from the other side that they've established a TCP connection to us. This fixes a bug where sending a file from Trillian to Pidgin would fail if the Trillian user was behind a firewall. Fixes #2976. Huge thanks to Kyryll A Mirnenko aka Mirya for basically tracking this down.

 @signaldef image-deleting
  @signalproto
char *(*image_deleting)(const PurpleStoredImage *img);
  @endsignalproto
  @signaldesc
   Emitted when a PurpleStoredImage is about to be destroyed.  This allows
   for what amounts to weak references.  Code can hold onto a pointer to
   the PurpleStoredImage without actually "holding" a reference.  They can
   then use a signal handler to let them know when their img is about to
   be destroyed.
  @param img The image about to be destroyed.
  @note It's not possible to purple_imgstore_ref() img to save it.
