Hopefully fix the XMPP contact flipping/swapping between groups bug
described at http://trac.adiumx.com/ticket/8834 and
http://pidgin.im/pipermail/devel/2008-June/006191.html

See the comment I added at the top of roster.c for details.

+ * This boolean was added to eliminate a heinous bug where we would
+ * get into a loop with the server and move a buddy back and forth
+ * from one group to another.
+ *
+ * The sequence goes something like this:
+ * 1. Our resource and another resource both approve an authorization
+ *    request at the exact same time.  We put the buddy in group A and
+ *    the other resource put the buddy in group B.
+ * 2. The server receives the roster add for group B and sends us a
+ *    roster push.
+ * 3. We receive this roster push and modify our local blist.  This
+ *    triggers us to send a roster add for group B.
+ * 4. The server recieves our earlier roster add for group A and sends
+ *    us a roster push.
+ * 5. We receive this roster push and modify our local blist.  This
+ *    triggers us to send a roster add for group A.
+ * 6. The server receives our earlier roster add for group B and sends
+ *    us a roster push.
+ * (repeat steps 3 through 6 ad infinitum)
+ *
+ * This boolean is used to short-circuit the sending of a roster add
+ * when we receive a roster push.
