Hi Guix,

This patch series updates the console XMPP client profanity and XMPP library libstrophe to their latest versions. I tested by building on x86_64 Linux and used the new profanity to read some XMPP conversations.

Some things to note:

This version of profanity uses libstrophe instead of profanity's fork of
libstrophe, libmesode. There are no other uses of libmesode, so I've removed that package.

The URL of profanity's tarballs has changed, so I updated the source record. However, unfortunately, `guix refresh` is now no longer able to check for updates. Using tarballs for profanity (as opposed to git checkouts) is nice because profanity publishes checksums on their website.

Profanity could use gtk+-3 instead of gtk+-2, but since profanity might be used places were the rust dependency of gtk+-3 is not appropriate, I've left it at version 2 for now.

Best,
Jack
