Updating dox for mod_rest. Ideas expressed / clarified: 1) Making clear that mod_rest isn't to be installed under VirtualHosts AND as a component. 2) Understanding some of the implications of this choice: A) Changes to user authentication B) How it affects subdomains 3) More consistent use of domain names for clarity. 4) Using different heading sizes to show scope of section. Essentially, I added all the tidbits I had to clarify in getting this to work in my own example.

Quirks
======

This implementation is a work in progress.

-   Stanzas to full JIDs get sifted correctly
-   Stanzas to bare JIDs are currently allowed/disallowed for all
    resources as a whole, and not for individual resources
-   Presence is only sent to available resources, and probes are not
    sent for unavailable reasources
-   This module currently does not interact with offline messages
    (filtered messages are dropped with an error reply)
-   Not tested with privacy lists
