mod_invites_register_api: Use set_password() for password resets
Previously the code relied on the (weird) behaviour of create_user(), which
would update the password for a user account if it already existed. This has
several issues, and we plan to deprecate this behaviour of create_user().
The larger issue is that this route does not trigger the user-password-changed
event, which can be a security problem. For example, it did not disconnect
existing user sessions (this occurs in mod_c2s in response to the event).
Switching to set_password() is the right thing to do.

--- labels: - 'Type-S2SAuth' --- Introduction ============ [PKIX over Secure HTTP (POSH)][rfc7711] describes a method of securely delegating a domain to a hosting provider, without that hosting provider needing keys and certificates covering the hosted domain. # Validating This module performs POSH validation of other servers. It is *not* needed to delegate your own domain. # Delegation You can generate the JSON delegation file from a certificate by running `prosodyctl mod_s2s_auth_posh /path/to/example.crt`.
