mod_http_oauth2: Record hash of client_id to allow future verification RFC 6819 section 5.2.2.2 states that refresh tokens MUST be bound to the client. In order to do that, we must record something that can definitely tie the client to the grant. Since the full client_id is so large (why we have this client_subset function), a hash is stored instead.

Introduction
============

This is an experimental authentication module that does an asynchronous
HTTP call to verify username and password.

Details
=======

When a user attempts to authenticate to Prosody, this module takes the
username and password and does a HTTP GET request with [Basic
authentication][rfc7617] to the configured `http_auth_url`.

Configuration
=============

``` lua
VirtualHost "example.com"
authentication = "http_async"
http_auth_url = "http://example.com/auth"
```

Compatibility
=============

Requires Prosody trunk
