mod_invites_page: Remove preauth URI button
This button is incompatible with the majority of XMPP clients around, yet based
on feedback from users, many are drawn to click it when they have any XMPP client
installed already.
In the case where the user already has software installed, we would prefer them to
select it from the software list so they can follow the setup process suited to
their specific client (we already track which software supports preauth URIs). If
their client is not listed, they can still use the manual registration link instead.

This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process. Why === When shutting down, a number of sessions, connections and other things are teared down. Due to all these things happening very quickly, sometimes e.g. client unavailable notifications don't make it to all remote contacts because the server-to-server connections are teared down just after. How === This module works by breaking the shutdown process into separate steps with a brief pause between them. It goes something like this 1. Stop accepting new client connections. 2. Close all client connections. 3. Fire event for everything else. 4. Tell `net.server` to quit the main loop. 5. ??? 6. Still here? Kill itself.
