Motivation for this change
The
swiften
XMPP library was broken as of 2019. This commitfixes it, by copying a patch from the Arch Linux PKGBUILD
(https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk?h=packages/swift)
and by using the same scons flags in that PKGBUILD.
Of note is the flag swiften_dll=1, which means that the library
is now built dynamically.
