mod_sasl2_fast: Fix harmless off-by-one error (invalidates existing tokens!)
Problem:
This was causing the key to become "<token>--cur" instead of the expected
"<token>-cur". As the same key was used by the code to both set and get, it
still worked.
Rationale for change:
Although it worked, it's unintended, inconsistent and messy. It increases the
chances of future bugs due to the unexpected format.
Side-effects of change:
Existing '--cur' entries will not be checked after this change, and therefore
existing FAST clients will fail to authenticate until they attempt password
auth and obtain a new FAST token.
Existing '--cur' entries in storage will not be cleaned up by this commit, but
this is considered a minor issue, and okay for the relatively few FAST
deployments.

2059 | 10 Introduction |
11 ============ | |
12 | |
13 This module allows users with an account to generate single-use invite URLs | |
14 using an ad-hoc command. The invite URLs allow new users to create an account | |
15 even if public registration is disabled. | |
16 | |
17 After the account is created, the inviter and the invitee are automatically | |
18 added to the other's roster. The inviter of a user is stored, so can be used | |
19 later (for example, for detecting spammers). | |
20 | |
21 This module depends on Prosody's internal webserver. | |
