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.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: 'Measure number of daily, weekly and monthly active users' ... Introduction ============ This module calculates the number of daily, weekly and monthly active users - often abbreviated as DAU, WAU and MAU. These metrics are more accurate for determining how many people are actually using a service. For example simply counting registered accounts will typically include many dormant accounts that aren't really being used. Many servers also track the number of connected users. This is a useful metric for many purposes, but it is generally lower than the actual number of users - because some users may only connect at certain times of day. The module defines "activity" as any login/logout event during the time period, and for this it depends on mod_lastlog2 being loaded (it reads the data stored by mod_lastlog2). Each individual user is only counted once. "Daily" means any event within the past 24 hours, "weekly" means within the past 7 days, and "monthly" means within the past 30 days. Details ======= The user count is calculated shortly after startup, and then recalculated hourly after that. Metrics are exported using Prosody's built-in statistics API. There is no configuration for this module. Compatibility ============= Requires Prosody 0.11 or later with mod_lastlog2 enabled.
