mod_firewall: Update user marks to store instantly via map store The original approach was to keep marks in memory only, and persist them at shutdown. That saves I/O, at the cost of potentially losing marks on an unclean shutdown. This change persists marks instantly, which may have some performance overhead but should be more "correct". It also splits the marking/unmarking into an event which may be watched or even fired by other modules.

Introduction
============

This module allows users to reset their password via a simple link to a web page.

Reset links may be generated by an admin through their XMPP client using the ad-hoc
command that this module provides. Alternatively other modules may reuse this module
to generate links and e.g. send them via email to the user directly.

A link is only valid for a single reset, and expires after a duration (24 hours by default).

This module depends on Prosody's internal webserver.
