Generalize the FQY command so it can be used by different callbacks based on the place that called it. Then automatically call an FQY when sending the buddy list ADL's for a buddy with an unknown network. Then we can send a corrected ADL later with the network from the FQY. This should make it easier for people with OCS/Yahoo contacts that were added incorrectly by previous versions, as they shouldn't need to mess with their address book outside of Pidgin (but if there are multiple buddy copies, that may need fixing externally). I should probably figure out how to permanently fix the Membership lists, eventually. References #6755. References #3322
