util.jid: Fix special escaping of '\' per XEP-0106 From XEP-0106 §2. Requirements: > in certain circumstances, the escaping character itself ("\") might > also be escaped Later in §4.2 Address Transformation Algorithm it is stated that the backslash would only be escaped if it forms an escape sequence. Thus '\foo' is unaltered but '\20' must be escaped into '\5c20'. Thanks to lovetox and jonas’ for brining up.

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.
