Add support for XEP-0174 (XMPP standard)

[sjehuda]

For over a decade, XMPP clients can communicate over LAN and "mesh" by publishing their presence using Avahi (also referred to as "Zeroconf"); see XEP-0174: Serverless Messaging.

Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. This enables you to plug your laptop or computer into a network and instantly be able to view other people who you can chat with, find printers to print to or find files being shared.

Clients with XEP-0174 support: Gajim * and Kopete, and more...

* Support to Gajim will be restored very soon

@marchellodev: Any progress on it?

I have published an article which details the long-term benefits of implementing XEP-0174.
