mod_log_ringbuffer: Detach event handlers on logging reload (thanks Menel)
Otherwise the global event handlers accumulate, one added each time
logging is reoladed, and each invocation of the signal or event triggers
one dump of each created ringbuffer.

summary: 'Test account credentials using HTTP'
...
Introduction
------------
This module lets you test whether a set of credentials are valid,
using Prosody's configured authentication mechanism.
This is useful as an easy way to allow other (e.g. non-XMPP) applications
to authenticate users using their XMPP credentials.
Syntax
------
To test credentials, issue a simple GET request with HTTP basic auth:
GET /auth_check HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic <base64(jid:password)>
Prosody will return a 2xx code on success (user exists and credentials are
correct), or 401 if the credentials are invalid. Any other code may be returned
if there is a problem handling the request.
### Example usage
Here follows some example usage using `curl`.
curl http://prosody.local:5280/auth_check -u user@example.com:secr1t
