 Change the way we parse messages on MySpace a little bit.  This
 fixes #8846: people using web myspaceIM can't respond to pidgin myspaceIM

 For some reason IMs send using the myspace web site are sent so that
 they won't become offline messages if the other person is offline.
 I'm not really sure why that decision was made.

 So now we treat messages with bm 1 the same as messages with bm 121. This
 means
 we have to combine the function that parses out typing notification with
 the function that parses IMs. And we check for typing notifications by
 looking for %typing%. Which means if someone sends the IM "%typing%" with
 no markup then we'll interpret it as a typing notification. And there's
 nothing we can do to differentiate between the two. I asked.
