mod_compat_roles: New module providing compat shim for trunk's new role API The new role API is translated to is_admin() calls on older versions. On newer versions (which have the role API) this module does nothing. It allows modules to drop their use of is_admin() (which is not available in trunk) and switch to the new role API, while remaining compatible with previous Prosody versions.

summary: Workaround for servers doing EXTERNAL without proper stream headers
...

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

This module is a workaround for servers that try to do s2s
authentication with certificates and SASL EXTERNAL, but do not send
correct stream headers. Notably Openfire versions since 3.7 or 3.8.
