The python log viewer contains an ascii art drawing of a pony. I highly
recommend people check that out.

So that commit adds two things, a plugin at the gabble level that creates a new
Dbus interface on gabble which shows XMPP-XML, and a small python GUI app to
show it.

This DBus interface will almost certainly never be marked as stable.

This is a pretty niche requirement so our options are
 - Say "there's a GTK python app, use that if you want logs".
 - Make a proper GUI client somewhere.
 - Properly integrate it like it is in PSI where you can open a console
directly from the contact list/accounts kcm somewhere.

Personally I'm against option 3, and too lazy to do option 2 myself. 
However, if someone wants to make a GUI browser, go for it. I don't think I'd
have any problem shipping it as a debug tool with no menu entries. I understand
the code well enough to mentor/help anyone.
