check tls

If you server is on standard port and XMPP domains matches the hostname you can simply use:

$ fluxxmpp check chat.sum7.eu
 info All checks passed
   ⇢  address="chat.sum7.eu" domain=""
   ⇢  main.go:43 main.runCheck
   ⇢  2019-07-16T22:01:39.765+02:00

You can also pass the port and the XMPP domain if different from the server hostname:

$ fluxxmpp check chat.sum7.eu:5222 --domain meckerspace.de
 info All checks passed
   ⇢  address="chat.sum7.eu:5222" domain="meckerspace.de"
   ⇢  main.go:43 main.runCheck
   ⇢  2019-07-16T22:01:33.270+02:00

Error code will be non-zero in case of error. You can thus use it directly with your usual monitoring scripts.
