I just finished a refactor of the Jingle File Transfer code in #Conversations_im.

The P2P file transfer code was probably one of the oldest code in Conversations.

The new code should be a lot more resilient and brings support for XEP-0343: Signaling WebRTC datachannels in Jingle¹. This means we should be able to exchange files directly with #XMPP web clients.

Due to the better NAT hole punching of WebRTC vs Socks Bytestreams we now have a higher chance of actual P2P.
