mod_invites_page: Remove preauth URI button
This button is incompatible with the majority of XMPP clients around, yet based
on feedback from users, many are drawn to click it when they have any XMPP client
installed already.
In the case where the user already has software installed, we would prefer them to
select it from the software list so they can follow the setup process suited to
their specific client (we already track which software supports preauth URIs). If
their client is not listed, they can still use the manual registration link instead.

--- labels: - 'Type-Auth' summary: OAuth authentication ... Introduction ============ This is an authentication module for the SASL OAUTHBEARER mechanism, as provided by `mod_sasl_oauthbearer`. You can use this to log in via OAuth, for example if you want your user's to log in with Github, Twitter, Reddit etc. The XMPP client needs get an OAuth token from the provider (e.g. Github) and send that to Prosody. This module will then verify that token by calling the `oauth_url` you've configured. Configuration ============= Per VirtualHost, you'll need to supply your OAuth client Id, secret and the URL which Prosody must call in order to verify the OAuth token it receives from the XMPP client. For example, for Github: oauth_client_id = "13f8e9cc8928b3409822" oauth_client_secret = "983161fd3ah608ea7ef35382668aad1927463978" oauth_url = "https://api.github.com/applications/{{oauth_client_id}}/tokens/{{password}}"; authentication = "oauthbearer"
