A/V conference now adds user metadata about the stream it is forwarding through XEP-0298.
This is parsed and added to metadata during confirmation on client side.

- SDP can now be answered by component instead of frontend. This is useful for A/V
conferences component to handle A/V call jingle sessions.
- new `call_update` and method, and `content-add` action preparation. This is not yet used
by A/V conference, but it's a preparation for a potential future use.
- Add NS_AV_CONFERENCES to features as required by the newly proposed A/V Conferences
protoXEP.
rel 447
- `content-add` is now handled at this plugin level (implementation needs to be done in
apps and transports plugins).
- `get_transport` is now exposed.
rel 447
- jingle session management is now correctly handled, with id of the Galène client used as
prefix when necessary.
- Galène is now run only when component session is started, avoiding systematic run on
__init__.
- Galène ICE logs are displayed with high verbosity.
- Fix disco identity handling

when set, the `call_setup_cb` method will be used instead of calling the `call_setup`
bridge signal. This will be useful to incoming `Conferences` component to handle the
signaling internally.
rel 445
- ICE buffer is now sent also for initiator.
- If `ice_candidates_new_cb` is set in `session`, it will be used instead of using the
`ice_candidates_new` signal. This is useful to handle internally the workflow, and will
be used in incoming `Conferences` component.

this directory may be used to share files between backend and frontends. Normally, an
os-dependent temporary directory is created for that, but if this option is set, the
directory will be created in <local_dir>/<cache_dir>, which may be useful in some use case
(e.g. containerized frontends and backend).
- Generated password must now be named and are stored, so they are re-used on following
restarts. Password size can now be specified.
- New `not` filter for `!libervia_param` to inverse a boolean value.
- Former `front_url` field has been renamed to `web_url_path` as it is the URL path used
for web frontend. All Web frontend related field are prefixed with `web_`.
- `front_url` is now used to specify a whole front URL (notably useful if an app uses its
own domain). A list can be used to retrieve a key, like for `url_prefix`, and `https`
scheme is added if no scheme is specified.
- An abstract class is now used for App Managers.
- Last application start time is stored in persistent data.
This is the frontends common part of remote control implementation. It handle the creation
of WebRTC session, and management of inputs. For now the reception use freedesktop.org
Desktop portal, and works mostly with Wayland based Desktop Environments.

This is an implementation of the protoXEP that will be submitted to XSF. It handle
establishment of a remote control session, and the management of A/V calls with XEP-0167.

This is a series of changes necessary to prepare the implementation of remote control
feature:
- XEP-0166: add a `priority` attribute to `ApplicationData`: this is needed when several
applications are working in a same session, to know which one must be handled first.
Will be used to make Remote Control have precedence over Call content.
- XEP-0166: `_call_plugins` is now async and is not used with `DeferredList` anymore: the
benefit to have methods called in parallels is very low, and it cause a lot of trouble
as we can't predict order. Methods are now called sequentially so workflow can be
predicted.
- XEP-0167: fix `senders` XMPP attribute <=> SDP mapping
- XEP-0234: preflight acceptance key is now `pre-accepted` instead of `file-accepted`, so
the same key can be used with other jingle applications.
- XEP-0167, XEP-0343: move some method to XEP-0167
- XEP-0353: use new `priority` feature to call preflight methods of applications according
to it.
- frontend (webrtc): refactor the sources/sink handling with a more flexible mechanism
based on Pydantic models. It is now possible to have has many Data Channel as necessary,
to have them in addition to A/V streams, to specify manually GStreamer sources and
sinks, etc.
- frontend (webrtc): rework of the pipeline to reduce latency.
- frontend: new `portal_desktop` method. Screenshare portal handling has been moved there,
and RemoteDesktop portal has been added.
- frontend (webrtc): fix `extract_ufrag_pwd` method.

Twisted auth mechanism are outdated, and as a result, Libervia was not supporting the
mandatory SCRAM-SHA auth mechanism. This patch implements it for SCRAM-SHA-1,
SCRAM-SHA-256 and SCRAM-SHA-512 variants.
- file send/receive commands now supports webRTC transfer. In `send` command, the
`--webrtc` flags is currenty used to activate it.
- WebRTC related code have been factorized and moved to `libervia.frontends.tools.webrtc*`
modules.

Implement XEP-0343: Signaling WebRTC Data Channels in Jingle. The current version of the
XEP (0.3.1) has no implementation and contains some flaws. After discussing this on xsf@,
Daniel (from Conversations) mentioned that they had a sprint with Larma (from Dino) to
work on another version and provided me with this link:
https://gist.github.com/iNPUTmice/6c56f3e948cca517c5fb129016d99e74 . I have used it for my
implementation.
This implementation reuses work done on Jingle A/V call (notably XEP-0176 and XEP-0167
plugins), with adaptations. When used, XEP-0234 will not handle the file itself as it
normally does. This is because WebRTC has several implementations (browser for web
interface, GStreamer for others), and file/data must be handled directly by the frontend.
This is particularly important for web frontends, as the file is not sent from the backend
but from the end-user's browser device.
Among the changes, there are:
- XEP-0343 implementation.
- `file_send` bridge method now use serialised dict as output.
- New `BaseTransportHandler.is_usable` method which get content data and returns a boolean
(default to `True`) to tell if this transport can actually be used in this context (when
we are initiator). Used in webRTC case to see if call data are available.
- Support of `application` media type, and everything necessary to handle data channels.
- Better confirmation message, with file name, size and description when available.
- When file is accepted in preflight, it is specified in following `action_new` signal for
actual file transfer. This way, frontend can avoid the display or 2 confirmation
messages.
- XEP-0166: when not specified, default `content` name is now its index number instead of
a UUID. This follows the behaviour of browsers.
- XEP-0353: better handling of events such as call taken by another device.
- various other updates.
