Nicotine+ should support upnp for automatic router port forwarding

[vfiend@…]

It would be nice if Nicotine+ supported upnp to automatically forward ports without user intervention like lots of programs do these days, especially popular bittorrent clients (Azureus, Deluge, KTorrent...), the next version of aMule, Pidgin, etc.

There are other advantages besides simplifying initial setup for users - for example, when a friend of mine plugs his laptop into my network, his bittorrent client can automatically forward ports and there's no need to fiddle with manual port forwarding. It would be nice if Nicotine+ could do this sort of thing too.

#304 suggested gnupnp and libupnp (there's an old version and a new fork of it), but none of these three, AFAIK, have python bindings.
