Restore BOSH to a more-or-less working state. Major changes: * Obey the 'requests' attribute on session creation response. Extra requests are buffered until we can send something. * Attempt to gracefully fail from a proxy that doesn't allow pipelining to multiple TCP connections. Still to do: * SSL the Pidgin<>Connection Manager connection * Pay attention to 'inactivity' and 'polling' * The HTTP handler won't work if a read() on a pipelined connection returns data from one response as well as the beginning of a second response.
