prosodyctl: Further deprecate start/stop/restart commands when installed Despite the warning we introduced, many people continue to try using prosodyctl to manage Prosody in the presence of systemctl (e.g. #1688). Also, despite the warning, prosodyctl proceeded with the operation. This means the commands could be invoked by accident, and cause a situation that is hard to recover from (needing to manually track down stray processes). This commit disables all the problematic commands by default, but this can still be overridden using --force or via a config option. We only perform this check when we believe Prosody has been "installed" for system-wide use (i.e. running it from a source directory is still supported).

Structure of a stanza:


stanza {
	--- properties ---
	tags -- array of tags
	
	--- static methods ---
	iq(attrs) -- 
	
	--- read-only methods ---
	reply -- return new stanza with attributes of current stanza
	child_with_name(string name) -- return the first child of the current tag with the matching name
	
	--- write methods ---
	tag(name, sttrs) -- create a new child of the current tag, and set the child as current
	up() -- move to the parent of the current tag
	text(string) -- append a new text node to the current tag
}
