mod_rest: Restore 'kind' property in JSON-mapped objects The datamapper schema has no 'kind' field, instead handling it as a top-level property of the currently unused <xmpp> element and doing this early dispatch on the top level element name. This puts the field back into the output JSON.

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.
