mod_muc_rtbl: also filter messages
This was a bit tricky because we don't want to run the JIDs
through SHA256 on each message. Took a while to come up with this
simple plan of just caching the SHA256 of the JIDs on the
occupants.
This will leave some dirt in the occupants after unloading the
module, but that should be ok; once they cycle the room, the
hashes will be gone.
This is direly needed, otherwise, there is a tight race between
the moderation activities and the actors joining the room.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Beta' - 'Type-Auth' summary: | Authentication module for 'HA1' hashed credentials in a text file, as used by reTurnServer ... Introduction ============ This module authenticates users against hashed credentials stored in a plain text file. The format is the same as that used by reTurnServer. Configuration ============= Name Default Description ----------------- ---------- --------------------------------- auth\_ha1\_file auth.txt Path to the authentication file Prosody reads the auth file at startup and on reload (e.g. SIGHUP). File Format =========== The file format is text, with one user per line. Each line is broken into four fields separated by colons (':'): username:ha1:host:status Field Description ---------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- username The user's login name ha1 An MD5 hash of "username:host:password" host The XMPP hostname status The status of the account. Prosody expects this to be just the text "authorized" More info can be found [here](https://github.com/resiprocate/resiprocate/blob/master/reTurn/users.txt). Example ------- john:2a236a1a68765361c64da3b502d4e71c:example.com:authorized mary:4ed7cf9cbe81e02dbfb814de6f84edf1:example.com:authorized charlie:83002e42eb4515ec0070489339f2114c:example.org:authorized Constructing the hashes can be done manually using any MD5 utility, such as md5sum. For example the user 'john' has the password 'hunter2', and his hash can be calculated like this: echo -n "john:example.com:hunter2" | md5sum - Compatibility ============= ------ ------- 0.9 Works 0.10 Works ------ -------
