Support for uploading and downloading large object (files) out of band.

Also:

• Allow serving static content from web root /
• Chat bot fix: ensure correct conversion of strings in protobufs
• Bug fixes in mysql adapter

• Option to configure MySQL DSN
• Bug fix: don't send key press notifications from one user's session to the other sessions of the same user.

Main changes

• Refactored searching for users and topics:
  • Two types of queries: transient fnd.public and long lived: fnd.private. Transient queries are not saved on the server and not shared between user's devices/clients. Long lived queries are persisted at the server and shared between devices.
  • Queries are strings now (as opposed as string arrays before). A formal query language is introduced.
  • An option added for designating some tags as restricted. It's needed for managing organizations within a server.
• Structured private field in topics and users. The private used to contain a string. Now it holds an object with private.comment holding what was the content of private.
• touched field is added to report last message time stamp. It's needed for sorting topics by the time of last activity.
• Graphic assets updated with the new logo
• Bug fixes

• Hash navigation, i.e. http://localhost:6060/x/#contacts/usrDCizWvmZb3c.
• Automatic login by token. Token is saved in window.localStorage.
• Support for MyISAM MySQL engine.
  • Shortened some indexed MySQL fields.
  • Enforced maximum length of tags (96 chars) and login (32 chars).
• TouchedAt: last message timestamp reported in subscriptions.
• Bug fixes

Mostly focused on simplifying Docker builds, creating binary distros and fixing release-related bugs.

Lots and lots of bug fixes

MySQL adapter added.

Change in protocol version due to changes in handling message deletion.

This is 0.13 with gRPC client API and support for chatbots.
