mod_pubsub_post: Restructure authentication and authorization (BC) This deprecates the default "superuser" actor model and makes the default equivalent to the previous "request.id". A single actor and secret per node is supported because HTTP and WebHooks don't normally include any authorization identity. Allowing authentication bypass when no secret is given should be relatively safe when the actor is unprivileged, as will be unless explicitly configured otherwise.

# Groupchat 1.0 usage statistics gathering

Groupchat 1.0 was probably the protocol that predated
[XEP-0045: Multi-User Chat] and there is still some compatibility that
lives on, in the XEP and in implementations.

This module tries to detect clients still using the GC 1.0 protocol and
what software they run, to determine if support can be removed. 

Since joins in the GC 1.0 protocol are highly ambiguous, some hits
reported will be because of desynchronized MUC clients

# Compatibility

Should work with Prosody 0.10.x and earlier.

It will not work with current trunk, since the MUC code has had major
changes.
