Port 5222 has to be opened on the Jitst Meet server

I believe it is very important to let users know that Port 5222 has to be opened on the Jitst Meet server to allow inbound connections. Might save a few days effort for people :)

I'm not sure this feels like it belongs in the Jibri README, does nothing else require that port to be accessible?

@bbaldino everything connecting remotely to Prosody needs it, i.e. videobridges, jigasi or jicofo if it's not on the same machine.

Right, so it seems like this would be covered by another component that would be set up well before someone got to setting up Jibri.

True, but if everything is hosted on the same server, nothing else appears to require opening that port. It appears Jibri needs that port open (at least, if behind a NAT) regardless of where it's installed - same server as JMS or separate standalone server. Not sure if this qualifies as a PR though; a note in the README would suffice.
