mod_http_oauth2: Organize HTTP routes with comments Starting to get hard to follow. Usually one would start tracing the steps at the HTTP authorize route. Vaguely sorted alphabetically by path and point in the flow. (/register comes before /authorize tho)

summary: Workaround for Dialback with some servers that violate RFC 6120
...

This module provides a workaround for servers that do not set the `to`
attribute on stream headers, which is required per [RFC6120]:

> ## 4.7.2. to
> 
> For initial stream headers in both client-to-server and
> server-to-server communication, the initiating entity MUST include the
> 'to' attribute and MUST set its value to a domainpart that the
> initiating entity knows or expects the receiving entity to service.

As a side effect of [this issue](https://prosody.im/issues/issue/285),
Prosody 0.10 will be unable to do [Dialback][xep220] with servers that
don't follow this.

# Known servers affected

* Openfire 3.10.2 (and probably earlier versions)
