mod_firewall: SUBSCRIBED: Flip subscription check to match documentation The documentation claims that this condition checks whether the recipient is subscribed to the sender. However, it was using the wrong method, and actually checking whether the sender was subscribed to the recipient. A quick poll of folk suggested that the documentation's approach is the right one, so this should fix the code to match the documentation. This should also fix the bundled anti-spam rules from blocking presence from JIDs that you subscribe do (but don't have a mutual subscription with).

Introduction
============

On a server with public registration it is usually desirable to prevent
registration of certain "reserved" accounts, such as "admin".

This plugin allows you to reserve individual usernames, or those
matching certain patterns. It also allows you to ensure that usernames
conform to a certain pattern.

Configuration
=============

Enable the module as any other:

    modules_enabled = {
      "block_registrations";
    }

You can then set some options to configure your desired policy:

  Option                         Default             Description
  ------------------------------ ------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  block_registrations_users      *See source code*   A list of reserved usernames
  block_registrations_matching   `{ }`               A list of [Lua patterns](http://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#5.4.1) matching reserved usernames (slower than block_registrations_users)
  block_registrations_require    `nil`               A pattern that registered user accounts MUST match to be allowed

Some examples:

    block_registrations_users = { "admin", "root", "xmpp" }
    block_registrations_matching = {
      "master$" -- matches anything ending with master: postmaster, hostmaster, webmaster, etc.
    }
    block_registrations_require = "^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+$" -- Allow only simple ASCII characters in usernames
