util.dbuffer: Simplify test case An earlier theory involved the bug being related to collapsing multiple items, so it exercised that too. Also correct the comment, it referred to the space in "hello world" in an earlier version before the test string was changed to "foobar", which was what was tested in a REPL

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.
