#13813: italics need to be disabled for gchat

Pidgin displays the italics you type out after hitting ctrl+i, but the
people you talk to on Gchat can't actually see any italics because they're
unsupported. When talking to Gchat contacts using Pidgin, Pidgin should
disable the ctrl+i functionality entirely, because the italics aren't
communicable and so the Pidgin user thinks he is making a change in what
he types and what the other person sees when he isn't.
I am a big user of italics and only recently found out that nobody could
see them on gchat, and boy was I pissed.
