mod_invites_register_api: Use set_password() for password resets
Previously the code relied on the (weird) behaviour of create_user(), which
would update the password for a user account if it already existed. This has
several issues, and we plan to deprecate this behaviour of create_user().
The larger issue is that this route does not trigger the user-password-changed
event, which can be a security problem. For example, it did not disconnect
existing user sessions (this occurs in mod_c2s in response to the event).
Switching to set_password() is the right thing to do

--- summary: Ad-hoc commands for managing MUC hats --- # Introduction This module provides an internal API (i.e. to other modules) to manage 'hats' for users in MUC rooms. Hats (first defined in [XEP-0317], currently deferred) are additional identifiers that can be attached to users in a group chat. For example in an educational context, you may have a 'Teacher' hat that allows students to identify their teachers. Hats consist of a machine-readable unique identifier (a URI), and optionally a human-readable label. This module provides ad-hoc commands for MUC service admins to add/remove hats to/from users in MUC rooms. It depends (automatically) on mod_muc_hats_api. ## Configuration ``` Component "conference.example.com" "muc" modules_enabled = { "muc_hats_adhoc" } ``` ## Usage To successfully use the module you will need to use an XMPP client that is capable of sending commands to a specific host (e.g. via the service discovery browser in Gajim, Psi/Psi+ and other clients), and you'll find the commands on the MUC host. Also note that the display of hats in clients is currently non-existent, but will hopefully improve after [XEP-0317] is resurrected or replaced.
