mod_rest: Add special handling to catch MAM results from remote hosts
Makes MAM queries to remote hosts works.
As the comment says, MAM results from users' local archives or local
MUCs are returned via origin.send() which is provided in the event and
thus already worked. Results from remote hosts go via normal stanza
routing and events, which need this extra handling to catch.
This pattern of iq-set, message+, iq-result is generally limited to MAM.
Closest similar thing might be MUC join, but to really handle that you
would need the webhook callback mechanism.

| 2 summary: Module for improving the life of bot authors | |
| 3 --- | |
| 4 | |
| 5 This module makes it easier to write MUC bots by removing the | |
| 6 requirement that the bot be online and joined to the room. | |
| 7 | |
| 8 All the bot needs to do is send a message and this module handles the | |
| 9 rest. | |
| 10 | |
| 11 # Configuration | |
| 12 | |
| 13 Example configuration in Prosody: | |
| 14 | |
| 15 ```lua | |
| 16 Component "muc.example.com" "muc" | |
| 17 | |
| 18 modules_enabled = { | |
| 19 "muc_bot", | |
| 20 } | |
| 21 known_bots = { "bot@example.com" } | |
| 22 bots_get_messages = false | |
| 23 ignore_bot_errors = true | |
| 24 ``` | |
| 25 | |
| 26 # Sending messages | |
| 27 | |
| 28 Simply send a stanza like this from your bot: | |
| 29 | |
| 30 ```xml | |
| 31 <message type="groupchat" to="channel@muc.example.com"> | |
| 32 <body>Beep boop, I'm a bot!</body> | |
| 33 <nick xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/nick">Botty</nick> | |
| 34 </message> | |
| 35 ``` | |
| 36 | |
| 37 ## Use with mod_rest | |
| 38 | |
| 39 Using [mod_rest] to interact with MUC suffers from the same need to join | |
| 40 with an online resource, so this module helps with that as well! | |
| 41 | |
| 42 ```bash | |
| 43 curl https://xmpp.example.com/rest/message/groupchat/room@muc.example.com \ | |
| 44 -d body="beep boop" \ | |
| 45 -d nick="Botty" | |
| 46 ``` | |
| 47 | |
