When we get a presence of type="error" from the server that
corresponds to a Jabber chat, only destroy/free/close/leave
the chat room if the error happened while joining (and we
were therefore never in the room).
This fixes the following bug:
1. Join a room
2. Try to change your nickname to something that's being
used by someone else
3. The server gives you an error message, but you're not
actually kicked out of the room
4. Pidgin thinks you've been kicked out and won't let you
send messages to the room, etc.

/** @page plugin-ids Plugin IDs @section Introduction Every plugin contains a unique identifier to prevent duplicate plugin loading and conflicts. This, which will be called a plugin ID from here on, must follow a specific format. This format categorizes a plugin and makes duplicate IDs unlikely. @section Format The basic format of a plugin ID is as follows: <tt><i>type</i>-<i>username</i>-<i>pluginname</i></tt> The @em type indicator specifies the type of plugin. This must be one of the following: - core - Core plugin, capable of being loaded in any program using libpurple. It must not use any UI-specific code. - prpl - Protocol plugin, providing additional protocols to connect to. - lopl - Loader plugin, which loads scripts as plugins (like Perl or TCL). - gtk - GTK+ 2.x plugin. It may use GTK+ code, but cannot use any window toolkit code (such as X11 or Win32). - gtk-x11 - GTK+ 2.x plugin using X11 code. - gtk-win32 - GTK+ 2.x plugin using Win32 code. - qpe - Gaim for Qtopia plugin. The @em username must be a unique identifier for that person. It @em should be your SourceForge ID. Do @em not leave this field blank. The @em pluginname is the name of your plugin. It can be whatever you like, though it's common to keep it all lowercase. Do not use spaces! If you want a space, use a '-'. Please do not put a version indicator in the ID. The PurplePlugin structure already has a field for this. @section plugin-db Plugin Database Although it doesn't exist yet, in time there will be a plugin database on the Pidgin website, where users can download and install new plugins. Plugins will be accessed by your plugin ID, which is one reason why it must be unique. */ // vim: syntax=c tw=75 et
