Describe the bug

Dear @nioc,

Can you add supports of :

• SCRAM-SHA-1
• SCRAM-SHA-1-PLUS

• SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA-512
• SCRAM-SHA-512-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA3-512
• SCRAM-SHA3-512-PLUS

You can add too:

• SCRAM-SHA-224
• SCRAM-SHA-224-PLUS
• SCRAM-SHA-384
• SCRAM-SHA-384-PLUS

RFC8600: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8600 (2019-06-21): "When using the SASL SCRAM mechanism, the SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS variant SHOULD be preferred over the SCRAM-SHA-256 variant, and SHA-256 variants [RFC7677] SHOULD be preferred over SHA-1 variants [RFC5802]".

Hello @Neustradamus, unfortunately, I have no idea how to do this... may be you can search (or ask people) in the xmpp.js library used by wep-xmpp.

Otherwise I won't be able to implement this feature.

[Neustradamus]

@nioc: xmpp.js development has been stopped several years ago and does not support recent SCRAM versions. Hope that you can look to solve it and to permit to use a better SCRAM for security and to look to add -PLUS variants (TLS Channel Binding).

There is strophejs a better support for example.

This is a huge project, since the entire application is based on this library... if someone wants to handle it, we'll reopen the ticket...

@nioc: With your reaction, I can inform you that an unsolved ticket which is closed, there will have never a solution.

It is important to keep this ticket opens.
