Summary: Buddy Node Action Sensitivity

Initial Comment:
This patch sets the sensitivity to FALSE (i.e. it greys out the 
menu option) of any buddy node action where callback is 
NULL. This is so that plugins can put an item in the 
right-click menu and grey it out selectively instead of being 
forced to either offer the option or not. 
 
This is used in gaim-album, a plugin I'm writing to archive 
buddy icons. I believe this is the correct GUI way to 
represent to the user that a particular buddy doesn't have 
buddy icons saved. If the option was simply missing from 
the right-click menu, the user might think he had not 
installed the plugin correctly or something. 
 
The patch is against HEAD, but I see no harm in applying 
this to oldstatus if desired. Currently, if a plugin were to be 
setting an action without a callback, it would just do nothing.
