jabber.c: fix #17270, ignore STARTTLS when using BOSH.

Pidgin wants to establish a TLS connection with a STARTTLS request, but
it doesn't make any sense, since the XMPP stream is proxied by the BOSH
connection, which is already encrypted by HTTPS. It is impossible to
STARTTLS with BOSH.

According to XEP-0206: The client SHOULD ignore any Transport Layer Security
(TLS) feature since BOSH channel encryption SHOULD be negotiated at the HTTP
layer.

Failing to do it causes Pidgin fails to create any connection with BOSH to any
XMPP server with STARTTLS enabled.
