Now, instead of using Utils.cpp's AccountCachePath and AddOnCachePath,
and add-on should implement ChatProtocol::SetAccountCachePath and
ChatProtocol::SetAddOnCachePath.
In addition, most path-related functions in Utils now return BPaths― and
some of interest to chat add-ons can accept the path given by
ChatProtocol::SetAccountCachePath as the main argument.
If the user disables an account, this saves it so that on any
subsequent start-ups, the account won't be connected until the user
explicitly re-enables it.
ProtocolSettings were reworked to allow for publicly loading/saving
settings from BMessages, rather than solely from BViews.
In addition, all program-side disabling, enabling, and toggling of
accounts has been consolidated into ProtocolManager. This makes life
easier for other parts of the program that have to do these things
anyway.
Protocol messages was added to the API to allow joining abstract rooms
by their chat_id― IM_JOIN_ROOM and IM_ROOM_JOINED. To make room in
anticipation of future room-related calls, some messages' values have
been shifted.
A JoinWindow was created (found through [Chat→Join Room] or [Alt-J] in
the main window), to allow joining a room with this protocol message.
The user can select which account the room should be joined from through
a drop-down menu in the lower left-hand corner― a design I think could
be replicated in other parts of Caya well.
Path() and SetPath() in CayaProtocol were renamed to AddOnPath() and
SetAddOnPath() respectively. GetName() and SetName() were also added,
where "name" is the account name (aka the leaf of the protocols settings
path).
To Server, a new KeyMap was added for convenience (AccountInstances), to
associate these account names with their instance IDs.
