Summary: add mockprpl

Initial Comment:
Richard Laager requested this, so he might be kind enough to take it over and 
apply it, if appropriate.

this patch adds mockprpl, a mock protocol plugin, to the libgaim/protocols 
directory. for more about mockprpl, see:

http://snarfed.org/space/gaim+mock+protocol+plugin

the patch is pretty straightforward; it just adds the mockprpl subdir, the 
autoconf/automake changes for building it, and a ChangeLog entry.

there are a few questionable parts. first, mockprpl is ISO99 C, not ISO90, so 
it has mixed code and variable declarations. given that, i included the 
-Wno-declaration-after-statement flag in AM_CPPFLAGS in  Makefile.am. i think 
the code is more readable that way, but if that doesn't conform to gaim style, 
i can consider changing it.

second, richard asked if we should rename it nullprpl, to match nullclient. i 
think mockprpl is more self-explanatory, and i'm not sure it needs to match 
nullclient, but again, i'm open to debate.

third, copyright and license. it's currently copyright me and GPLed, which i'm 
guessing is ok, but feel free to change those if you need to. (i hereby 
transfer the copyright if necessary, etc. :P)

oh, uh, fourth. it looks like the gaim svn repository uses properties
attached to directories to ignore generated files - libraries, Makefiles
generated by automake, etc.

you'll probably want to recreate those on the mockprpl directory. one of
the other prpl dirs would be a good template.

(sorry, you probably already know all this. :P)
