net.websocket.frames: Replace bit fiddling code with util.struct Fallback code for not having either the string.pack and string.unpack functions available in Lua 5.4 or the struct lib is no longer needed since the struct lib was imported as util.struct in 3ce3633527af

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.
