util.dependencies: Print tables itself to reduce number of imports Rationale: See diffstat When this module is imported, it ends up calling stty via term_width() in util.human.io.table(). When this happens outside of a terminal, the following message is sent to stdout: stty: 'standard input': Inappropriate ioctl for device Not importing this module avoids that. Furthermore three is value in this module having minimal dependencies as they might not be available when it does the checks. Ref a1fed82c44b9

This file documents the structure of the roster object.

table roster {
  [string bare_jid] = roster_item
}

table roster_item {
  string subscription = "none" | "to" | "from" | "both"
  string name = Opaque string set by client. (optional)
  set groups = a set of opaque strings set by the client
  boolean ask = nil | "subscribe" - a value of true indicates subscription is pending
}

The roster is available as
 hosts[host].sessions[username].roster
and a copy is made to session.roster for all sessions.

All modifications to a roster should be done through the rostermanager.
