mod_cloud_notify: Identify (and immediately push) urgent stanzas, e.g. calls This covers the following things: - A session that appears online, but has a broken TCP connection - Clients such as Siskin and Snikket iOS that require a push for calls to work It allows the stanza to be pushed immediately instead of waiting for the session to hibernate or an ack to timeout. It shouldn't break any existing cases.

summary: Workaround for Dialback with some servers that violate RFC 6120
...

This module provides a workaround for servers that do not set the `to`
attribute on stream headers, which is required per [RFC6120]:

> ## 4.7.2. to
> 
> For initial stream headers in both client-to-server and
> server-to-server communication, the initiating entity MUST include the
> 'to' attribute and MUST set its value to a domainpart that the
> initiating entity knows or expects the receiving entity to service.

As a side effect of [this issue](https://prosody.im/issues/issue/285),
Prosody 0.10 will be unable to do [Dialback][xep220] with servers that
don't follow this.

# Known servers affected
