mod_client_management: Add support for revocation of clients (when possible)
We decided to keep the unified listing of "clients", which includes both SASL2
clients and OAuth grants, etc. To a user, or someone wanting to manage what
can access their account, they are largely equivalent.
To accomplish this technically, we add a prefix to the id to state what type
it really is.

# Introduction This module closes s2s connections when [mod_smacks][doc:modules:mod_smacks] reports that a connection has not received a timely acknowledgement as requested, indicating that the connection is broken or the remote server is not responding. With the connection closed, the next stanza to be directed to that server will trigger Prosody to establish a new connection, instead of queueing it on the potentially broken connection. This should prevent messages from being stuck in a queue for a potentially long time before being bounced back to the sender as delivery failure reports. Normally the amount of time it takes for a broken connection to time out is determined by TCP. If this is deemed sensible behavior then it will likely be merged into Prosody itself somewhere.
