Add support for multi-person conversations

[gunthercox]

Currently the logs in which each conversation is recorded contain the name of the speaker. These details could be used to allow the program to have a conversation with multiple people simultaneously in which each person can be replied to but the relevance of topics in the conversation still hold weight.

This is possible to do with the conversation objects added in #11, however addition tracking will not be added for this issue. The tracking would need to be added in an application where the library has been implemented, the application would be responsible for creating new conversation objects. In the case of a group conversation, multiple conversations may exist, and some of the statements might be a part of multiple conversations.

This would be great. Is it possible somehow to make multiple chatterbot instances, and then periodically 'combine' their training into one database so that they all benefit from the others' experience?

[gunthercox]

Yes, one way that this would be possible would be to simply create a number of chatterbot instances and set the parameter so that they all use the same database.

Great, thanks for the info.
