mod_s2s_keepalive: Use timestamp as iq @id
RFC 6120 implies that the id attribute must be unique within a stream.
This should fix problems with remote servers that enforce uniqueness and
don't answer duplicated ids.
If it doesn't do that, then at least you can get a guesstimate at
round-trip time from the difference between the result iq stanza and the
timestamp it was logged without having to go look for when it was sent,
or needing to keep state.

--- 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>'
