Undid the addition of 2 OscarCapability items I added previously, keeping the commented-out notes in family_locate. We can't let the OscarCapability bitmask get as large as 0x04000000, because if it exceeds the platforms MAX_UINT we'll end up in an infinite loop in oscar_caps_to_string() due to overflow.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
