mod_sasl2_fast: Fix harmless off-by-one error (invalidates existing tokens!)
Problem:
This was causing the key to become "<token>--cur" instead of the expected
"<token>-cur". As the same key was used by the code to both set and get, it
still worked.
Rationale for change:
Although it worked, it's unintended, inconsistent and messy. It increases the
chances of future bugs due to the unexpected format.
Side-effects of change:
Existing '--cur' entries will not be checked after this change, and therefore
existing FAST clients will fail to authenticate until they attempt password
auth and obtain a new FAST token.
Existing '--cur' entries in storage will not be cleaned up by this commit, but
this is considered a minor issue, and okay for the relatively few FAST
deployments.

--- summary: Workaround for Dialback with some servers that violate RFC 6120 ... This module provides a workaround for servers that do not set the `to` attribute on stream headers, which is required per [RFC6120]: > ## 4.7.2. to > > For initial stream headers in both client-to-server and > server-to-server communication, the initiating entity MUST include the > 'to' attribute and MUST set its value to a domainpart that the > initiating entity knows or expects the receiving entity to service. As a side effect of [this issue](https://prosody.im/issues/issue/285), Prosody 0.10 will be unable to do [Dialback][xep220] with servers that don't follow this. # Known servers affected * Openfire 3.10.2 (and probably earlier versions)
