mod_rest: Remove manual reference expansion in schema This hack was originally added to reduce the number of definitions of common attributes (type, to, from etc) and payloads (e.g. delay). This predated pointers and references, and until now was needed because parsing picked out the correct stanza kind from the schema, which broke internal references. Removing this hack paves the way for allowing the schema to be configured or customized more easily.

# Introduction

This module writes out a traceback to a file when a chosen signal (by default
`SIGUSR1`) is received. It can be useful to diagnose cases where Prosody is
unresponsive.

# Configuration

`debug_traceback_filename`
:   The name of the file to write the traceback to. Some variables
    are supported, see [mod_log_ringbuffer] docs for more info. Defaults
    to `{paths.data}/traceback-{pid}-{count}.log`.

`debug_traceback_signal`
:   The name of the signal to listen for. Defaults to `SIGUSR1`.

# Compatibility

Prosody 0.11 or later.
