implement inviteUser in the cloud social provider

[trevj]

@lucyhe, could really use your advice here:

• is inviteUser invoked with the ID of the user to which you're offering access?
• right now this returns an invite code as it should be distributed amongst users; is that what uProxy expects or should I be returning an object and allowing uProxy base64 encode it (or something)?

[lucyhe]

Since the codes aren't related to any contacts in the roster, I dont think inviteUser should expect a userId. Right now we have a function getInviteUrl() that calls inviteUser with an empty string, and returns a www.uproxy.org/invite/... url. I think this is probably what we want to use for cloud (at least for now)!

If possible, it would be best for inviteUser to return an object: { networkData :string }. uProxy will base64 this to turn it into the URL. Lets chat if that doesn't seem to work well with what you have so far; we can figure something else out!

[trevj]

OK, as discussed:

• uProxy will pass a clientId to inviteUser, as per-Github
• inviteUser now returns an object, with a networkData field that uProxy will base64 encode
