direct peer searches
* Fixed all those depreciated Combo() functions, updated all of them to
PyGTK 2.6 compatible functions.

Nicotine since GTK2.4 came out. The problem was fixed by adding:
"if not node: node = self.tree" to the on_iter_nth_child() function.
* Moved the upload popup-menu item so that it isn't incorrectly disabled from
sending multiple files.

pointed out by heni (thanks to both of you) )

* Added an optional client version message, which is similar to the CTCP
VERSION message on IRC. It sends your client's version via Private Message to
a remote user. You can disable automatic responding of it in the
Settings->Server. So far, it works only with this version of Nicotine and
Museek's Curses client, Mucous. Send it via the popup menu in Private chat,
or with the command: /ctcpversion
