I've hacked away on this library a bit, so now prompting for a file
works for me, discovery of the http-upload service works for me, and the
uploaded image is sent as a jabber:x:oob url-message, so Conversations,
Gajim et al will show it inline.

With the patch I sent yesterday ("[PATCH UPDATED] Add
jabber-chat-print-image to body-printers, move jb-print-url too"), the
image sent is also displayed inline in jabber.el.

The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is that I get a
multibyte HTTP request error the second time I call
jabber-http-file-upload - so I can send one image, then I have to
restart Emacs to send another. Which is kind of annoying.

I can't figure the reason out. If anyone can, it would be great. Here
are my changes:

I hope they can be useful to someone.

I rather like being able to send images inline in jabber.el, so I don't
have to resort to centralized non-XMPP services just to send a picture!
