Slavi Pantaleev 70fd20cef5 Add support for WeChat bridging
This is based on the PR (https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy/pull/3241)
by Tobias Diez (https://github.com/tobiasdiez).

I've refactored some parts, made it more configurable, polished it up,
and it's integrated into the playbook now.

Both the WeChat bridge and WeChat agent appear to be working.
The WeChat bridge joins rooms and responds as expected.

That said, end-to-end testing (actually bridging to a WeChat account) has not been done yet.

    Rename WeChat Agent configuration file

    This makes it more clear that it belongs to the agent.
    Otherwise, `config.yaml` and `configure.yaml` make you wonder.

    Update WeChat logging config

    This brings it up-to-date with what mautrix-go uses.
    Otherwise, on startup we see:

    > Migrating legacy log config

    .. and it gets migrated to what we've done here.

    Make sure matrix-wechat-agent runs as 1000:1000

    It needs to write stuff to `/home/user/.vnc`.

    `/home/user` is owned by `user:group` (`1000:1000`), so it cannot run
    any other way.

    Previously, if the `matrix` user was uid=1000 by chance, it would work,
    but that's pure luck.

    matrix_go_wechat_ -> matrix_wechat_

    The bridge is written in Go, but does not include Go anywhere in its
    name. As such, it's mostly useless to use `matrix_go_wechat` as the
    prefix.

# Setting up the WeChat Bridge (optional)
The playbook can install and configure the [matrix-wechat](https://github.com/duo/matrix-wechat) bridge for you (for bridging to the [WeChat](https://www.wechat.com/) network).
See the project page to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
To enable the bridge, use the following playbook configuration and re-run the playbook's [installation](./installing.md) procedure:
```yaml
matrix_wechat_enabled: true
```
## Usage
Once the bridge is installed, start a chat with `@wechatbot:YOUR_DOMAIN` (where `YOUR_DOMAIN` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
Send `help` to the bot to see the available commands.
