mod_s2s_keepalive: Ignore errors from the local server If a stanza can't be delivered and instead an bounce is generated, the origin of the error, when different from the stanza 'from' should be indicated in the 'by' attribute of the <error>, which we look for here so this doesn't count as a successful ping. An error that does come from the remote means we have connectivity, but probably no XEP-0199 handling. This is fine. We care about connectivity, not protocol.

summary: Workaround for servers doing EXTERNAL without proper stream headers
...

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

This module is a workaround for servers that try to do s2s
authentication with certificates and SASL EXTERNAL, but do not send
correct stream headers. Notably Openfire versions since 3.7 or 3.8.
