Update the documentation and examples

- update most of the examples with slixmpp
- change the help channels pointed out in the doc
- add a page listing differences from slixmpp and how to use asyncio
  nicely with slixmpp
- fix some in-code rst documentation

-Default Encoding
-----------------
-XMPP requires support for UTF-8 and so Slixmpp must use UTF-8 as well. In
-Python3 this is simple because Unicode is the default string type. For Python2.6+
-the situation is not as easy because standard strings are simply byte arrays and
-use ASCII. We can get Python to use UTF-8 as the default encoding by including:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    if sys.version_info < (3, 0):
-        from slixmpp.util.misc_ops import setdefaultencoding
-        setdefaultencoding('utf8')
-
-.. warning::
-
-    Until we are able to ensure that Slixmpp will always use Unicode in Python2.6+, this
-    may cause issues embedding Slixmpp into other applications which assume ASCII encoding.
