Network-chat: Fix remote peer making multiple connections

The system was just treating IP (and optionally port) as a unique
identifier, so if a peer had multiple possible paths to a client they
would connect multiple times.

This fixes that by generating using QUuid in each client.
We then use this during broadcast, replacing the username we
sent before (which was not used), and as part of the greeting.
The greeting now is more complex, since we need to send both
username and the ID.
