Description
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc6578.txt
Helps avoiding fetching the whole list of items. Should be implemented with fallback to a normal query of all items, because server support is uncertain.

Research direction
Start by reading RFC 6578, then trace vdirsyncer's existing item-list query and synchronization flow. Implementing the protocol with a fallback to fetching all items is complete when both supported and unsupported servers synchronize correctly; the payload names no files or tests to run.
