mod_muc_moderation: Stamp XEP-0421 occupant-id for the acting moderator Gives clients some hint about which moderator it was who did the deed. The @by attribute does have the nick of the actor, but they could change their nickname at some point, which is what occupant-id solves. Ref #1816

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

In order to build heuristics for which messages are spam, it is necessary to
log as many details as possible about the spammers. This module sends a
version and disco query whenever a message is received from a JID to a user it
is not subscribed to. The results are printed to Prosody's log file at the
'info' level. Queried full JIDs are not queried again until Prosody restarts.

The queries are sent regardless of whether the local user exists, so it does
not reveal if an account is active.
