Autocrypt header must be transmitted in both directions to allow opportunistic end-to-end
encryption with this protocol.
Moved email validation regex to `tools/common/regex.py`, as it can be used in other
locations.

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.

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.

`init_script_path` option can be used in `[DEFAULTS]` to run a script at the end of
backend initialisation. A new `init_pre_script` method is used to wait for backend to
reach this stage (designed to be used mostly by CLI frontend), then the usual `ready_get`
method is finished once the script is finished.
Add 2 filters to get main type and subtype of media type. Jinja2 and Nunjucks don't handle
slices in the same way (Python way for Jinja2, JS way for Nunjucks), making it difficult
to retrieve main type of a media from media type. Thoses filters work in both cases.
- updated installation to use the now standard `pyproject.toml` instead of legacy
`setup.py`. `setup.py` and other legacy files have been deleted.
- removed outdated README4PACKAGERS
- removed pylintrc which has not been correctly reviewed. Linter conf should go to
`pyproject.toml` now.
- [hatch](https://hatch.pypa.io) is now used as main building tool. However, thanks to the
use of standards, other tools can be used too.
- update .hgignore
- several dependencies version bump, with code update to adapt to changes.
