Log Message:
Update to prosody 0.8.1.

A security and bug fix release.  The security aspect is to mitigate the
"billion laughs" denial-of-service attack against XML parsers and XMPP
servers.

Other changes:

- Reject XML DTDs, comments and processing instructions, preventing
  the "billion laughs" attack
- Switch to MEDIUMTEXT in the schema for MySQL to avoid truncating
  large data (such as large avatars)
  Prosody automatically upgrades the table in-place if possible, see:
  http://prosody.im/doc/mysql
- Fix for endless loop when parsing certain invalid JSON
- Fix PostgreSQL compatibility in prosody-migrator
- Fix timestamp parsing for DST (affecting MUC scrollback retrieval)
- mod_legacyauth now correctly disabled for unencrypted connections by default
- Components properly inherit SSL settings and certificates from their
  'parent' hosts
- Prevent startup with no VirtualHost entries in the config file
