Because BOSH works over connections that may die non-fatally, we need to limit the number of failed re-connection attempts before we declare the session lost. Reset the failures each time we process a full read from the server, which is a little hacky, but indicates that we have a *working* connection.

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.
