mod_http_oauth2: Record OAuth software id and version attached to tokens Unsure if these are used anywhere, but `software_id` is supposedly more unique than `client_uri` which can vary by registration or something? Software versions can also be good to know e.g. in case there is a security issue affecting certain versions that could warrant revocation of tokens issued to it.

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.
