mod_post_msg: Add sendxmpp-curl
I wrote this script around the same time as this module. My local copy
has a last modification timestamp of 2011-03-29, so it's been unchanged
since then.
The original rationale was that it seemed overkill to establish an
entire XMPP session just to send a single message. Nowadays I'm quite
happy using `clix` for this kind task.

--- labels: - Stage-Alpha ... Introduction ============ This is an experimental authentication module that does an asynchronous HTTP call to verify username and password. Details ======= When a user attempts to authenticate to Prosody, this module takes the username and password and does a HTTP GET request with [Basic authentication][rfc7617] to the configured `http_auth_url`. Configuration ============= ``` lua VirtualHost "example.com" authentication = "http_async" http_auth_url = "http://example.com/auth" ``` Compatibility ============= Requires Prosody trunk
