Summary:                    [branch] Add support for distributing device state
and MWI via XMPP PubSub
Description: 
Distributing device state in this way opens up the possibility of having
geographically distributed clusters, as well as having integration with
XMPP clients and other components that are PubSub-aware.

I haven't tested the XMPP Pubsub support yet but I'd have some suggestions
based on what I've read.

It may be better to use Pubsub-On-Jid as defined by
http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html#presence .

This would have two advantages :

- It'd make possible to define pseudo-standard Pubsub nodes that could
hence be automatically discovered by all clients (ideally, defining such
nodes in XEP would be better). Whereas using classic Pubsub doesn't make
easy to automatically discover nodes ;

- Clients could easily subscribe and unsubscribe for events notifications
by using filtered notifications with '+notify' as defined by
http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html#filtered-notifications . This
would be a way to temporarily suspend notifications.

There could be for example the following node
'http://asterisk.org/notification/voicemail' and client wishing to receive
notifications for such events would simply have to publish
'http://asterisk.org/notification/voicemail+notify' in their capability
features.

BTW, which format do use in the payload ? Do you use PIDF ? I'd be curious
to know what Pubsub messages look like.
