mod_pubsub_serverinfo: New module that uses pub/sub to make accessible server info This first implemetnation is laughably simple: it only adds a disco#info feature. This flags 'opt-in' for inclusion of local domain names in the data exposed by other domains (per the domain), which will allow servers to be listed in the XMPP Network Graph at https://xmppnetwork.goodbytes.im Hopefully, this bare-boned implementation acts as a stepping stone for future improvements.

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.
