Feature Request: Add support for Gossip/Grapewine chat network

Brief summary of issue / Description of requested feature:

Gossip is a new inter-MUD chat network using websockets and JSON packets for communication through a centrally hosted server.

Reasons for adding feature:

It’s good to support initiatives like this, and Evennia already uses websockets for the webclient anyway.

Expected result of feature

A new gossip prototocol in evennia/server/portal/. It’s probably not needed to work in the same way as the IRCbot (there is no bot to launch onto the gossip network), but on the Evennia server side one could probably still represent the connection through a Bot class so it’s easy to relay data back to the respective Evennia channels.

Extra information, such as Evennia revision/repo/branch, operating system and ideas for how to solve / implement:

This is for development branch; and definitely open for those wanting to help out.

While I can’t help directly with this effort, if anyone has questions about Gossip’s protocol I am more than happy to answer them (and maybe update the documentation so it’s clear!). Looking forward to seeing this in Evennia!

This was already implemented in Evennia 0.9, just forgot to close this.
