mod_cloud_notify_encrypted: Ensure body substring remains valid UTF-8 The `body:sub()` call risks splitting the string in the middle of a multi-byte UTF-8 sequence. This should have been caught by util.stanza validation, but that would have caused some havoc, at the very least causing the notification to not be sent. There have been no reports of this happening. Likely because this module isn't widely deployed among users with languages that use many longer UTF-8 sequences. The util.encodings.utf8.valid() function is O(n) where only the last sequence really needs to be checked, but it's in C and expected to be fast.

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.
