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.

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

On a server with public registration it is usually desirable to prevent
registration of certain "reserved" accounts, such as "admin".

This plugin allows you to reserve individual usernames, or those
matching certain patterns. It also allows you to ensure that usernames
conform to a certain pattern.

Configuration
=============

Enable the module as any other:

    modules_enabled = {
      "block_registrations";
    }

You can then set some options to configure your desired policy:

  Option                           Default         Description
  -------------------------------- --------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  block\_registrations\_users      `{ "admin" }`   A list of reserved usernames
  block\_registrations\_matching   `{ }`           A list of [Lua patterns](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.4.1) matching reserved usernames (slower than block\_registrations\_users)
  block\_registrations\_require    `nil`           A pattern that registered user accounts MUST match to be allowed

Some examples:

    block_registrations_users = { "admin", "root", "xmpp" }
    block_registrations_matching = {
      "master$" -- matches anything ending with master: postmaster, hostmaster, webmaster, etc.
    }
    block_registrations_require = "^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+$" -- Allow only simple ASCII characters in usernames

Compatibility
=============

  0.9   Works
  0.8   Should work
