`PyCrypto` is unmaintained for years but was used in SàT for password hashing. This patch
fixes that by replacing `PyCrypto` by the reference `cryptography` module which is well
maintained.
The behaviour stays the same (except that previously async `hash`, `encrypt` and `decrypt`
methods are now synchronous, as they are quick and using a deferToThread may actually be
more resource intensive than using blocking methods).
It is planed to improve `memory.crypto` by using more up-to-date cryptography/hashing
algorithms in the future.
PyCrypto is no more a dependency of SàT
This flag can be used by frontends to decide if the widget must be really closed or not
(otherwise, it may be interesting to keep a widget in memory to avoir recreating a new one
each time that the chat must be displayed).
instead of calling plyer's generic notify, AndroidNotification is now inherited to add a
SàT specific behaviour: a "sat_action" dictionary is now attached, to indicate to the
frontend what to do when the notification is opened.
a check is done to avoid running startConnection several times at once, which would lead
to the creation of several SatXMPPEntity instances at the same time, resulting in many
issues.
If startConnection is called while a previous one is not finished yet, a CancelError is
now raised.
this method will be called by frontend to know which profile to connect automatically
(when the frontend has been closed and is reopened, this will avoid to have to go through
the profileManager again).
In some case, it may be desirable for a frontend to not expose some parameters to user
(e.g. it is the case on Android with the `autoconnect_backend` parameter). An new `extra`
parameter has been added to a couple of parameters method for that: it can contain the
`ignore` key with a list of [category, name] of parameters to skip.
- renamed fromDict to more accurate fromListDict
- fixed handling of None filter in fromListDict
- fixes show_header when no header exist
- escape headers when using namedtuple, so it won't fail
A new Connection/autoconnect_backend param can be set for a profile or component to be
started automatically with backend. This is specially useful for components, but can be
useful for client profile too (e.g. on Android we need to start profile with backend to
get notifications, this part will come with following commits).
The new Sqlite.getIndParamValues method allows to retrieve the same parameters for all
profiles.
namespaces and encryption plugins are only retrieved once backend is ready, else they may
not yet be available (can happen notably when the backend is start at the same time as the
frontend, e.g. on Android).
