pidgin: build with cyrus_sasl for SASL in IRC and XMPP
SASL is required to connect to Freenode on high-abuse networks, e.g. highly NATed networks or Tor. However, Pidgin only supports PLAIN authorization type, and Freenode specifically prohibits using anything other than EXTERNAL or ECDSA-NIST256P-CHALLENGE over Tor. It still allows PLAIN for potentially problematic clearnet networks, though.
