Research direction

Start with the mod_invites implementation and the ejabberdctl generate_invite entry point. Reproduce the failure on ejabberd 26.7 or earlier using more than 1,000 invites, then trace where num_invites_exceeded is returned. Done means the command handles requests above 1,000 invites according to the intended limit, with coverage for the reported case.
