mod_groups_internal: Fix traceback when room doesn't exist I'm not sure if it should even be included if it doesn't exist, but I'm not currently sure how this situation occurs, so I'm implementing the lightest possible fix for now.

Simple module adding an endpoint meant to be used for health checks.

# Configuration

After installing, enable by adding to [`modules_enabled`][doc:modules_enabled] like many other modules:

``` lua
-- in the global section
modules_enabled = {
    -- Other globally enabled modules here...
    "http_health"; -- add
}
```

## Access control

By default only access via localhost is allowed. This can be adjusted with `http_health_allow_ips`. The following example shows the default:

```
http_health_allow_ips = { "::1"; "127.0.0.1" }
```

Access can also be granted to one IP range via CIDR notation:

```
http_health_allow_cidr = "172.17.2.0/24"
```

The default for `http_health_allow_cidr` is empty.

# Details

Adds a `http://your.prosody.example:5280/health` endpoint that returns either HTTP status code 200 when all appears to be good or 500 when any module
[status][doc:developers:moduleapi#logging-and-status] has been set to `error`.
