mod_rest: Add special handling to catch MAM results from remote hosts
Makes MAM queries to remote hosts works.
As the comment says, MAM results from users' local archives or local
MUCs are returned via origin.send() which is provided in the event and
thus already worked. Results from remote hosts go via normal stanza
routing and events, which need this extra handling to catch.
This pattern of iq-set, message+, iq-result is generally limited to MAM.
Closest similar thing might be MUC join, but to really handle that you
would need the webhook callback mechanism.

::: {.alert .alert-warning} This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process. Graceful shutdown has now been implemented in Prosody trunk and will be part 0.12. See [issue #1225](https://issues.prosody.im/1225) for details. ::: 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.
