[JDEV] Presence probe requests

[Peter Saint-Andre]

You're right, there is no server ack (like HTTP 200) in Jabber anywhere.
It's definitely something we could add to JEP 22, but I don't like how
many packets it would add, servers are not currently set up to do this
stuff (JEP 22 is just for client to client other than the offline stuff
but I don't know if that is supported), and this would be something that
you might want to negotiate for an entire session (or do you want to do
this on a per-message basis?).

Just a few questions. :)
