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.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' - 'Type-Storage' summary: Experimental map store optimized for small incremental changes ... This is an experimental storage driver where changed data is appended. Data is simply written as `key = value` pairs to the end of the file. This allows changes to individual keys to be written without needing to write out the entire object again, but reads would grow gradually larger as it still needs to read old overwritten keys. This may be suitable for e.g. rosters where individual contacts are changed at a time. In theory, this could also allow rolling back changes. Requires 0.10
