Add sending a video when motion is detected.

Add a config option for arming the device automatically if there hasn't been any motion for a specific time. Useful in case the user forgot to arm the device.

Currently piCamBot fails with python3 for various reasons.

If piCamBot is armed and shuts down or crashes it should re-enter armed state when being started again.

I have followed your instructions in a new raspbian installation because my old SD card went wrong.
To make it work, I needed old versions of two dependencies.
pip3 install python-telegram-bot==10.1.0
pip3 install inotify==0.2.8

Maybe you want to note it on README.md

Messages should be queued and if network errors occur. Active probing should ensure that queued messages get delivered as soon as the network becomes accessible again.

Currently piCamBot fails if module RPi.GPIO is not installed. The module is only needed for controlling a PIR sensor or buzzer. piCamBot could be used without it for image capturing purposes only.

Report how long we have been down after coming back on after a shutdown or crash.
