mod_http_oauth2: Improve error messages for URI properties Since there are separate validation checks for URI properties, including that they should use https, with better and more specific error reporting. Reverts 'luaPattern' to 'pattern' which is not currently supported by util.jsonschema, but allows anything that retrieves the schema over http to validate against it, should they wish to do so.

Details
=======

mod_invites_adhoc allows XMPP clients to create new invites on the server.
Clients must support either XEP-0401 (Easy Onboarding) or XEP-0050 (Ad-hoc
commands).

There are three types of invitation that can be created:

| Invite type | Description |
|--|--|
| Account-only invites | These can be used to register a new account |
| Contact-only invites | These can be shared with a contact so they can easily add you to their contact list |
| Account-and-contact invites | Like a contact-only invite, but also allows the contact to register on the current server if they don't already have an XMPP account |

Only configured admins of the server are able to create account-only invites. By default
normal users may only create contact-only invites, but account-and-contact invites can
be enabled with the `allow_user_invites` option.

Configuration
=============

| Name                  | Description                                                           | Default                                   |
|-----------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
| allow_user_invites    | Whether non-admin users can invite contacts to register on this server| `false`                                   |
| allow_contact_invites | Whether non-admin users can invite contacts to their roster           | `true`                                    |

The `allow_user_invites` option should be set as desired. However it is
strongly recommended to leave the other option (`allow_contact_invites`)
at its default to provide the best user experience.
