XMPP (Jabber) used to be able to be used by the [[assistant]] as a git remote.
This never worked very well, and it was not entirely secure, since the XMPP
server saw the contents of git pushes without encryption. So, XMPP support
has been removed. Use [[tor]] instead.
remove xmpp support I've long considered the XMPP support in git-annex a wart. It's nice to remove it. (This also removes the NetMessager, which was only used for XMPP, and the daemonstatus's desynced list (likewise).) Existing XMPP remotes should be ignored by git-annex.
