mod_http_muc_log: Remove dead code
This might be something left over since a different variant where the
loop went like `for n = i-1, i-100, -1 do ... end` i.e. it went trough a
fixed number of items instead of all the page until the current message.
Then it would have needed something to stop going over the end, but
since the checks are simple it shouldn't be much of a problem looping
over even a very busy day.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: Send XMPP stanzas via REST/HTTP ... This module provides a [REST](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_state_transfer)ful method for sending XMPP stanzas. This enables you to send stanzas by making HTTP requests to `http://${prosody-url}/rest`. **DANGER/ACHTUNG!: This module does NOT enforce any authentication or user-checking. This means that by default stanzas can be sent *anyone* on behalf of *any* user.** You should enable [mod_http_authentication](https://modules.prosody.im/mod_http_authentication.html), to require authentication for calls made to this module, or alternatively, you could use a reverse proxy like Nginx. # To enable this module Add `"http_rest"` to `modules_enabled`, either globally or for a particular virtual host. # How to test: You can use curl to make the HTTP request to Prosody, to test whether this module is working properly: curl -k http://localhost:5280/rest -u username:password -H "Content-Type: text/xml" -d '<iq to="pubsub.localhost" type="set" id="4dd1a1e3-ef91-4017-a5aa-eaba0a82eb94-1" from="user@localhost"><pubsub xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub"><publish node="Test mod_rest.lua"><item>Hello World!</item></publish></pubsub></iq>'
