mod_client_management: Add support for revocation of clients (when possible) We decided to keep the unified listing of "clients", which includes both SASL2 clients and OAuth grants, etc. To a user, or someone wanting to manage what can access their account, they are largely equivalent. To accomplish this technically, we add a prefix to the id to state what type it really is.

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

In order to build heuristics for which messages are spam, it is necessary to
log as many details as possible about the spammers. This module sends a
version and disco query whenever a message is received from a JID to a user it
is not subscribed to. The results are printed to Prosody's log file at the
'info' level. Queried full JIDs are not queried again until Prosody restarts.

The queries are sent regardless of whether the local user exists, so it does
not reveal if an account is active.
