mod_auth_cyrus: Add empty 'profile' table to SASL handler objects This is for compatibility with Prosody's built-in util.sasl objects. A SASL profile table usually includes methods supported by the backend, which can be used by SASL mechanism handlers to perform operations (such as testing the password). It also optionally contains a 'cb' field with channel binding method handlers. The Cyrus backend doesn't support channel binding, and doesn't have the same concept of auth backend methods (it handles all that internally, and Prosody has no insight or control over it). Thus, we create an empty profile which informs Prosody that the SASL handler does not support any of the auth or channel binding methods. Some features will not work, but they didn't work anyway. This just makes it explicit. This fixes a traceback in mod_sasl2_fast, which expected SASL handlers to always contain a 'profile' field.

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

This module allows a user to import or export account data using a simple
HTTP API. The data is expected to be in the format described by [XEP-0227:
Portable Import/Export Format for XMPP-IM Servers](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0227.html).

Note that this module does not provide any UI for direct interaction from
users - it is expected that any UI will be provided elsewhere. For example,
this module is used by the [Snikket web portal](https://github.com/snikket-im/snikket-web-portal/).

For Developers
==========

TBD.

Compatibility
=============

Requires Prosody trunk (270047afa6af).
