Updates? "Is Ricochet Dead?" #555

Description

Some users claimed on Reddit that Ricochet is dead. That's because the last upload is 2016.
Half of 2017 passed, and it's time to release new version. As a daily ricochet user, I want to ask - what the hell is going on?

Here's some important things(high priority than UI update):

Anyone can create a private_key using scallion(or other tool) with GPUs, so it's bad to rely only
on Tor's hidden service protocol. OTR+TLS encryption is necessary to make sure Ricochet is talking to the
right person.

I also want to use HiddenServiceAuth soon. I also want to see multiple profile support, so I
can use onion A to talk with A, onion B to talk with B, C, and so on.

Also, Tor 0.3.x will introduce xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx(very long).onion soon(late 2017).
Are you ready for this?
