util.signal: Add support for signalfd(2) on Linux signalfd allows handling signal events using the same method as sockets, via file descriptors. Thus all signal dispatch can go through the same main event loop as everything else, removing need for thread-scary signal handling where execution would just jump to the signal handler regardless of the state of Lua, and needing to keep track of Lua states/threads.

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.
