mod_ping_muc: Delay ping a configurable amount of time
If a server is restarting, checking immediately before it has a chance
to complete its restart and get ready would often fail, preventing the
possibility of transparent restarts as supported by Prosody's mod_muc.
Reconnecting immediately when a connection is closed for being idle, or
because the remote server is trying to reclaim some resources, is also
counter-productive as the connection may fail.
Also, if there is some Internet routing problem affecting s2s, it may
help to wait a bit before checking, in case the problem resolved itself
in the mean time.

This module compares the memory usage reported by Lua before and after each event and reports it to the log if it exceeds the configuration setting `log_memory_threshold` (in bytes). ``` lua log_memory_threshold = 20*1024 ``` If you are looking to identify memory leaks, please first read [Three kinds of memory leaks](https://blog.nelhage.com/post/three-kinds-of-leaks/). Prosody runs on Lua which uses automatic memory management with garbage collection, so the numbers reported by this module are very likely to be useless for the purpose of identifying memory leaks. Large, but temporary, increases in memory usage can however highlight other kinds of performance problems and sometimes even provide hits for where to look for memory leaks.
