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.

| 7 ============ | |
| 8 | |
| 9 This is an experimental authentication module that does an asynchronous | |
| 10 HTTP call to verify username and password. | |
| 11 | |
| 12 Details | |
| 13 ======= | |
| 14 | |
| 15 When a user attempts to authenticate to Prosody, this module takes the | |
| 16 username and password and does a HTTP GET request with [Basic | |
| 17 authentication][rfc7617] to the configured `http_auth_url`. | |
