[bisq-network/proposals] Enable face to face (F2F) trade in Bisq (#24)

[Manfred Karrer]

@HarryMacfinned The trade protocol is the same like in normal trades. Physical violence is a risk here and I think it can only be mitigated by choosing a safe meeting place and maybe to negotiate upfront some security checks (e.g. share social media accounts or so some sort of ID check - but that is up to the makers to define their TACs).
The release of the BTC can be done after the meeting if that is defined in the makers TACs.
Also the buyer can click the payment started button before they meet and leave the laptop at home. He has nothing to loose as he wants the BTC and can pre-sign the payout tx without any risk.
How we define the best trade protocol is still up for discussion here.... 
I just tried to implement it with the existing infrastructure (without the dependency on mobile app) and see if that is sufficiently safe that people will use it.
