mod_bookmarks2: Fix handling of nick and password elements This form of child retrieval fails when the stanza elements internally don't have an 'xmlns' attribute, which can happen sometimes for some reason, including when they have been constructed via the stanza builder API. When that is the case then the explicit namespace arguemnt does not match the nil value of the internal attribute. Calling `:get_child()` without the namespace argument does the right thing here, with both nil and the parent namespace as valid values for the internal attribute.

# mod_tweet_data

This module adds [Open Graph Protocol](https://ogp.me) metadata to Twitter.com tweet URLs sent inside a MUC.

It's similar to [mod_ogp](https://modules.prosody.im/mod_ogp.html) but is adapted specifically to Twitter.com, which doesn't support the [Open Graph Protocol](https://ogp.me).

When a user sends a tweet URL in a MUC (where the message has its `id` equal to its `origin-id`), this module calls that URL to get the tweet data.
If it finds any, it sends a [XEP-0422 fastening](https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0422.html) applied to the original message that looks as follows (note, I haven't used real data here):

```xml
    <message xmlns="jabber:client" to="user@chat.example.org/resource" from="chatroom@muc.example.org" type="groupchat">
        <apply-to xmlns="urn:xmpp:fasten:0" id="82dbc94c-c18a-4e51-a0d5-9fd3a7bfd267">

Configuration
-------------

You'll need to provide a Twitter APIv2 bearer token.

```lua
Component "muc.example.org" "muc"
  modules_enabled = { "tweet_data" }
  twitter_apiv2_bearer_token  = { "some-very-long-string" }
```
