mod_posix: Remove ancient undocumented user switching
User switching has been done by prosodyctl or init scripts for a very

Using this would not have worked with module reloading (e.g. to reload
certificates) since ports are closed and re-bound, which would then not
be allowed.
Today there exists better ways to grant low ports, i.e. capabilities(7)
