mod_http_xep227: Add support for import via APIs rather than direct store manipulation
In particular this transitions PEP nodes and data to be imported via mod_pep's
APIs, fixing issues with importing at runtime while PEP data may already be
live in RAM.
Next obvious candidate for this approach is rosters, so clients get immediate
roster pushes and other special handling (such as emitting subscribes to reach
the desired subscription state).

--- labels: summary: 'Test account credentials using HTTP' ... Introduction ------------ This module lets you test whether a set of credentials are valid, using Prosody's configured authentication mechanism. This is useful as an easy way to allow other (e.g. non-XMPP) applications to authenticate users using their XMPP credentials. Syntax ------ To test credentials, issue a simple GET request with HTTP basic auth: GET /auth_check HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic <base64(jid:password)> Prosody will return a 2xx code on success (user exists and credentials are correct), or 401 if the credentials are invalid. Any other code may be returned if there is a problem handling the request. ### Example usage Here follows some example usage using `curl`. curl http://prosody.local:5280/auth_check -u user@example.com:secr1t
