Changelog:
- libpurple:
- Fixed a crash on removing a custom buddy icon on a buddy.
- Fixed a crash caused by certain self-signed SSL certificates.

- Pidgin:
- The status selector now saves your message when changing status.
- Fix a case where a conversation window could close unexpectedly.
- A mute sounds option has been added to the preferences window to help with discoverability. CTRL+S is no longer bound to mute.

- Fix a crash occuring when a custom smiley is deleted and re-added and used in an open conversation after being re-added.
- Finch:
- A new 'Nested Grouping' option in the 'Grouping' plugin. Group hierarchies are defined by the '/' character in the group names.
- A bug was fixed where some key-bindings wouldn't work with some TERMs (e.g. xterm-color, screen-linux etc.)
- MSN:
- Operations (such as moving to a new group) on contacts that were added in the same session should now complete correctly, and not cause synchronization errors at next login.
- Minor fixes to login process during a server transfer.
- Restored the "Has You" feature to the MSN protocol tooltips.
