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).

This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process.

Graceful shutdown has now been implemented in Prosody trunk and will be
part 0.12. See [issue #1225](https://issues.prosody.im/1225) for
details.
:::

Why
===

When shutting down, a number of sessions, connections and other things
are teared down. Due to all these things happening very quickly,
sometimes e.g. client unavailable notifications don't make it to all
remote contacts because the server-to-server connections are teared down
just after.

How
===

This module works by breaking the shutdown process into separate steps
with a brief pause between them.

It goes something like this

1.  Stop accepting new client connections.
2.  Close all client connections.
3.  Fire event for everything else.
4.  Tell `net.server` to quit the main loop.
5.  ???
6.  Still here? Kill itself.
