Add flatpak build configuration for Empathy

Description
To help with testing, building, and to isolate a process that receives data over the network it'd be nice to have a flatpak build for Empathy.
This came up in bug #749001
There was some concern how telepathy would work over dbus between the host OS and the containerized application.
But it was pointed out that Polari has a flatpak build as "prior art".
So I started. It turns out Polari is actually building and shipping telepathy components. (Telepathy-logger, telepathy-mission-control, telepathy-glib, telepathy-idle)
I copied what they did and and added telepathy-gabble and its dependencies.
I'm still working my way through Empathy's additional dependencies.
