Optionally always send 'enable' request

Prosody 0.11.2 & Pidgin 2.12.0 (libpurple 2.12.0)

All I get in my logs is Skip carbons for offline user but the user is not offline.

I have several test accounts/machines side by side testing this and if I send a message on one account to another only one client gets the message and or shows the message was sent. The other clients are never passed the message to show as received or sent despite being from the active users.

I do however see the prosody carbons module sending to other clients like yaxim.

As a quick update I rolled out a test ejabberd server and it seems to work sometimes. Gajim works 100% of the time in my testing with ejabberd, pidgin is hit and miss but 100% failure with prosody as the server.

I've had this problem before. Personally I ended up altering carbons to remove the test against the user and always turn it on.

I just got rid of prosody and pidgin heh. I've discovered Pidgin just has too many shortcomings to care about it anymore. I've used it since like 1998 (gAim days) but time to say goodbye.

@petermolnar That's a good idea. Probably not any worse for the server than replying with a full feature list first...
