Updating dox for mod_rest. Ideas expressed / clarified:
1) Making clear that mod_rest isn't to be installed under VirtualHosts AND as a component.
2) Understanding some of the implications of this choice:
A) Changes to user authentication
B) How it affects subdomains
3) More consistent use of domain names for clarity.
4) Using different heading sizes to show scope of section.
Essentially, I added all the tidbits I had to clarify in getting this to work in my
own example.

--- labels: - Stage-Beta summary: "Fast Authentication Streamlining Tokens" rockspec: dependencies: - mod_sasl2 --- This module implements a mechanism described in [XEP-0484: Fast Authentication Streamlining Tokens] via which clients can exchange a password for a secure token, improving security and streamlining future reconnections. This module depends on [mod_sasl2]. ## Configuration | Name | Description | Default | |---------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------| | sasl2_fast_token_ttl | Default token expiry (seconds) | `86400*21` (21 days) | | sasl2_fast_token_min_ttl | Time before tokens are eligible for rotation (seconds) | `86400` (1 day) | The `sasl2_fast_token_ttl` option determines the length of time a client can remain disconnected before being "logged out" and needing to authenticate with a password. Clients must perform at least one FAST authentication within this period to remain active. The `sasl2_fast_token_min_ttl` option defines how long before a token will be rotated by the server. By default a token is rotated if it is older than 24 hours. This value should be less than `sasl2_fast_token_ttl` to prevent clients being logged out unexpectedly.
