This is my 'Authentication Rewrite' version 1.01, mostly as submitted to

samba-technical a few weeks ago.

The idea here is to standardize the checking of user names and passwords,
thereby ensuring that all authtentications pass the same standards.  The
interface currently implemented in as

nt_status = check_password(user_info, server_info)

where user_info contains (mostly) the authentication data, and server_info
contains things like the user-id they got, and their resolved user name.

The current ugliness with the way the structures are created will be killed
the next revision, when they will be created and malloced by creator functions.

This patch also includes the first implementation of NTLMv2 in HEAD, but which
needs some more testing.  We also add a hack to allow plaintext passwords to be
compared with smbpasswd, not the system password database.

Finally, this patch probably reintroduces the PAM accounts bug we had in
2.2.0, I'll fix that once this hits the tree.  (I've just finished testing
it on a wide variety of platforms, so I want to get this patch in).
(This used to be commit b30b6202f31d339b48d51c0d38174cafd1cfcd42)
