mod_compat_roles: Fix attempt to index a nil value #1847 permissions[] is not a map with role names as keys since 817bc9873fc2 but instead a level with host names were added. This was likely an oversight. Refactored towards railroad.

Introduction
============

Invites are an intermediate way between opening registrations completely and
closing registrations completely.

By letting users invite other users to the server, an administrator exposes
themselves again to the risk of abuse.

To combat that abuse more effectively, this module allows to store (outside
of the user’s information) who created an invite which was used to create the
user’s account.

Details
=======

Add to `modules_enabled`.

Caveats
=======

- The information is not deleted even when the associated user accounts are
  deleted.
- Currently, there is no way to make any use of that information.
