common_shorten_links() can only access the web session's logged-in user, so never properly took user options into effect for posting via XMPP, API, mail, etc.
Adds an optional $user parameter on common_shorten_links(), and a $user->shortenLinks() as a clearer interface for that.
Tweaked some lower-level functions so $user gets passed down -- making the $notice_id param previously there for saving URLs at notice save time generalized a little.
Note also ticket #2919: there's a lot of duplicate code calling the shortening, checking the length, and reporting near-identical error messages. These should be consolidated to aid in code and translation maintenance.
This option may be useful for intranet sites that don't have direct access to the internet, as they may be unable to successfully fetch those resources.
I've consolidated the checks for which user to use for single-user mode into User::singleUser(), which now uses the configured nickname by preference, falling back to the site owner if it's unset.
This is now called consistently from the places that needed to use the primary user's nickname in routing setup.
Setting $config['singleuser']['nickname'] should now work again as expected.
* now ignoring if-modified-since if we failed an etag if-none-match comparison, per spec
* now including a hash of user id/nickname in most etags, so we'll update the view properly after login/logout
For API methods, checking the API-auth'ed user. (Many change results to include things like 'you're subscribed to this user' or 'this is one of your favorites', so user info is again needed)
There'll still be some last-modified stamps that aren't including user info properly, probably.
When bogus SSL sites etc were hit through a shortening redirect, sometimes link resolution kinda blew up and the user would get a "Can't linkify" error, aborting their post.
Now catching this case and just passing through the URL without attempting to resolve it. Could benefit from an overall scrubbing of the freaky link/attachment code though...! :)

Users and administrators can set how long an URL can be before it's
shortened, and how long a notice can be before all its URLs are
shortened. They can also turn off shortening altogether.

Add a table for URL shortener prefs, a corresponding class, and the
correct mumbo-jumbo in statusnet.ini to make everything work.
* Moved notification sending from Notice::saveReplies to distrib queue handler, so it'll pull from the reply set we've saved regardless of how we got it.
* Set up gettext infrastructure for command-line scripts; gets localization mail notifications etc working from background queues.
* Adjusted locale switching: common_switch_locale() works at runtime for bg scripts, forces a message catalog update
Refactored some of the returnto handling code. It looks like we have several different ways of handling this in the software, icky!
Marked the session-based functions with fixmes (they'll stomp on other forms when multiple tabs/windows are used) and combined some commonish bits of code between ProfileFormAction and the group block & makeadmin actions where they're using hidden form parameters. Extended that to allow passing dynamic parameters (eg 'page') as well as static ones (action, target user/group).
May be slow or run out of memory if run on particularly prolific posters -- not yet optimized for that case.
Note that geodata that has already been sent out to other services (via ostatus, omb, twitter, etc) will not be removed from them.

Made a quick attempt to merge the new JID validation into the XmppPlugin, have not had a chance to test that version live yet.
Should also move over the test cases.
Basic splitting/validation code submitted via http://status.net/wiki/XMPP/JID_validation -- Copyright 2009 Patrick Georgi <patrick@georgi-clan.de> Licensed under ISC-L, which is compatible with everything else that keeps the copyright notice intact.
Added PEAR Net_IDNA package to extlib to handle IDN normalization (also used by Validate's email verifier if present).
* added test suite, supplemented my own test cases with JID validation and normalization test cases from libpurple
* follows XMPP rules for validation of name part
* fixes for normalization with non-ASCII names
* will do domain checks if $config['email']['check_domain'] is on, checking for an XMPP-server SRV record or any lookup. (We don't actually need to ping those direct though.)
* some more obscure stringprep validation rules aren't quite followed yet, but we err on the side of permissiveness.
* we still don't actually let you save your address with a resource on it, as we strip resources when looking up users who've sent us presence or message updates. I would recommend saving the outgoing resource as a separate field if/when we add that..?
Gets Spanish, French, Russian etc UI localization working on Debian Lenny fresh installation set up in Spanish (so es_ES.UTF-8 is available but en_US.UTF-8 isn't).
- switch 'en_US' to 'en', fixes the "admin panel switches to Arabic" bug
- tweak setting descriptions to clarify that most of the time we'll be using browser language
- add a backend switch to disable language detection (should this be exposed to ui?)
In a federated system, "@nickname" is insufficient to uniquely
identify a user. However, it's a very convenient idiom. We need to
guess from context who 'nickname' refers to.
Previously, we were using the sender's profile (or what we knew about
them) as the only context. So, we assumed that they'd be mentioning to
someone they followed, or someone who followed them, or someone on
their own server.
Now, we include the notice information for context. We check to see if
the notice is a reply to another notice, and if the author of the
original notice has the nickname 'nickname', then the mention is
probably for them. Alternately, if the original notice mentions someone
with nickname 'nickname', then this notice is probably referring to
_them_.
Doing this kind of context sleuthing means we have to render the
content very late in the notice-saving process.
