#9792: Not possible to join XMPP MUC with password unless invited

Comment (by deryni):
So the problem here is that the response to this join failure is awkward
(in terms of normal protocol design) compared to how this would ideally
work and that makes it more complicated to handle than is really
desirable.
Given a quick glance at the code for two other xmpp clients neither of
them seemed to handle this correctly either. (Though that's probably
because password protected rooms are rare in the XMPP world in my
experience with people favoring members-only rooms instead as being easier
to deal with and not requiring password rotation should someone be kicked
out.)
