mod_cloud_notify_encrypted: Ensure body substring remains valid UTF-8
The `body:sub()` call risks splitting the string in the middle of a
multi-byte UTF-8 sequence. This should have been caught by util.stanza
validation, but that would have caused some havoc, at the very least causing
the notification to not be sent.
There have been no reports of this happening. Likely because this module
isn't widely deployed among users with languages that use many longer UTF-8
sequences.
The util.encodings.utf8.valid() function is O(n) where only the last
sequence really needs to be checked, but it's in C and expected to be fast.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: 'Store who created the invite to create a user account' ... 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.
