Suppressed echoes in chat lobbies by:

- adding a time stamp to lobby events (new item tag)
- controllign time stamp of lobby msg and event: drop packets if time is older than cache duration.
- moved connexion challenge code to lobby management loop
- added new type of lobby invite to handle connexion challenges and avoid false invitations in the GUI

New lobby event format is not backward compatible -> "peer typing" and "peer joined/left" will need 
the new version. Messages are still compatible)
