mod_http_oauth2: Fix removal of consumed authorization codes Fixes mod_http_oauth2.lua:34: bad argument #2 to 'difftime' (number expected, got nil) The extra preceding argument to :set stored the client-id#code as a value instead of clearing the key, and then later in the periodic cleanup timer this string would be indexed, producing a nil and a traceback

Introduction
============

Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and
closing registrations completely.

By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes
themselves again to the risk of abuse.

To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside
of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the
user’s account.

Details
=======

Add to `modules_enabled`.

Caveats
=======

- The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are
  deleted.
- Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
