New description:

 Recently I found out a small issue: if another user changes it's avatar,
 we don't get it updated. New avatar is visible after our reconnect, or
 after this other user status change.

 I found out, that we get these updates in XML event packet, but we don't
 handle them. XML events can contain:
  - GGLive messages (I think, it's something like tweeter service)
  - notifications about avatar changes
  - notifications about user's new blog entries
  - graphical statuses (I hope we will NOT support this one)
 detailed information (in Polish):
 http://toxygen.net/libgadu/protocol/#ch1.13

 I have implemented general support for XML events, so we could provide
 support for new GaduGadu features in the future. Also, I have fixed that
 small issue, by implementing avatar change notifications, provided by
 these events.
