Remove 'unixsam' from the default passdb backends.
The intention is to remove the muliple passdb backends, but we need the 'guest' account to always be there. If the admin adds the guest account to (say) LDAP, there will only be one backend required for operation. This helps remove some nasty behaviours with adding accounts to the system for both the RPC 'create user' and the SAMSYNC code. Users 'added' with an 'add user/machine' script won't magicly appear, and machine accounts 'pre-added' to unix, but not the smbpasswd file will not cause mayhem. This commit also implements somthing tridge discussed with me, the concept of 'default' passdb operation pointers - so that each backend does not need it's own stub funcitons wrapping the default tdb privilages/group mapping code. This also removes an implicit 'sid->name' and 'name->sid' mapping from our own local SID space, to winbind usernames. When adding mapping for NIS/LDAP non-sam users in future, we need to be careful.
