Extra "Contact Manager" Providers for cPanel and WHM

Current plugins:

• XMPP -- Stable XMPP provider (well, as stable as Net::XMPP is, anyways). See issue #2
• IRC -- New provider, needs more testing by users out in the wild. "Works for Me"
• Slack -- Works presuming you have an incoming WebHook URL, much like CpanelRicky's MatterMost plugin.

Installation and Use:

• Clone this repo with git onto a cPanel host of at least 11.64+, then run make after changing the current working directory of your terminal session into the repo's directory.

• (Optionally) Run the Tests

  make test

• Go to WHM >> Basic Setup and configure the provider options

• Go to WHM >> Contact Manager and make sure it is set up to spam you mercilessly (and for the notifications you care about!).

• Do something to trigger a notification that should fire notifications from cPanel & WHM per your preference in /etc/clevels.conf

KNOWN BUGS

• ejabberd: Currently, the DIGEST-MD5 method (used by default in Net::XMPP when authenticating against the latest ejabberd versions) causes failures to send notifications. Add disable_sasl_mechanisms: "DIGEST-MD5" to your ejabberd.yml config file to avoid this problem. See issue #2 on the tracker.

TESTING NOTES

If you want to run a functional test for any of these (to debug problems), please run the following script: scripts/generate_testing_configuration.pl as this will prompt you for all the needed values to make the test run (it tells you how to run it too).

Anyways, this script will write out a file like the following to the repo's top level directory. In this example, we're using the XMPP provider, so it will be .xmpptestrc:

XMPPUSERNAME: user@domain.tld

XMPPPASSWORD: hunter2

XMPPCOMPONENTNAME:

XMPPUSETLS: 1

XMPPVERIFYCERT: 0

You'll note these correspond to the values in the Provider's Schema module. With that set, you should spam yourself with a message if the t/Cpanel-iContact-Provider-XMPP.t test passes.

Same goes for the IRC or Slack provider... use the same keys as in the schema module for dopeouts in its' test.
