Implementation of [XEP-0388: Extensible SASL Profile]. **Note: At the time of
writing (Nov 2022) the version of the XEP implemented by this module is still
working its way through the XSF standards process. See [PR #1214](https://github.com/xsf/xeps/pull/1214)
for the current status.**

## Configuration

This module honours the same configuration options as Prosody's existing
[mod_saslauth](https://prosody.im/doc/modules/mod_saslauth).

## Developers

mod_sasl2 provides some events you can hook to affect aspects of the
authentication process:

- `advertise-sasl-features`
- `sasl2/c2s/success`
  - Priority 1000: Session marked as authenticated, success response created (`event.success`)
  - Priority -1000: Success response sent to client
  - Priority -1500: Updated <stream-features/> sent to client
- `sasl2/c2s/failure`
- `sasl2/c2s/error`
