zeroed memory

which is much clearer and simpler to use. It removes a specific parent
from a pointer, no matter whether that parent is a "reference" or a
direct parent. This gives complete control over the free process.

the % coverage in terms of lines of code of a test suite. I thought a
good first place to start with gcov was the talloc test suite. When I
started the test suite covered about 60% of all lines of code in
talloc.c, and now it covers about 99%. The only lines not covered are
talloc corruption errors, as that would cause smb_panic() to fire.
It will be interesting to try gcov on the main Samba test suite for
smbd. We won't achieve 100% coverage, but it would be nice to get to
90% or more.
I also modified the talloc.c sources to be able to be build standalone, using:
gcc -c -D_STANDALONE_ -Iinlcude lib/talloc.c
that should make it much easier to re-use talloc in other projects

a const pointer really means that "the data pointed to by this pointer
won't change", and that is certainly true of talloc(). The fact that
some behind-the-scenes meta-data can change doesn't matter from the
point of view of const.
this fixes a number of const warnings caused by const data structures
being passed as talloc contexts. That will no longer generate a
warning.
also changed the talloc leak reporting option from --leak-check to
--leak-report, as all it does is generate a report on exit. A new
--leak-report-full option has been added that shows the complete tree
of memory allocations, which is is quite useful in tracking things down.
NOTE: I find it quite useful to insert talloc_report_full(ptr, stderr)
calls at strategic points in the code while debugging memory
allocation problems, particularly before freeing a major context (such
as the connection context). This allows you to see if that context has
been accumulating too much data, such as per-request data, which
should have been freed when the request finished.

taking a context (so when you pass a NULL pointer you end up with
memory in a top level context). Fixed it by changing the API to take a
context. The context is only used if the pointer you are reallocing is
NULL.

- talloc_strdup() and related functions get automatic names
(This used to be commit 0cf427d14fe0a19cb3e85b6191be220f3d81080a)

to get auto-naming of pointers very cheaply.
- fixed a couple of memory leaks found with the new tricks
A typical exit report for smbd is now:
talloc report on 'null_context' (total 811 bytes in 54 blocks)
auth/auth_sam.c:334 contains 20 bytes in 1 blocks
struct auth_serversupplied_info contains 498 bytes in 33 blocks
UNNAMED contains 8 bytes in 1 blocks
lib/data_blob.c:40 contains 16 bytes in 1 blocks
iconv(CP850,UTF8) contains 61 bytes in 4 blocks
iconv(UTF8,CP850) contains 61 bytes in 4 blocks
iconv(UTF8,UTF-16LE) contains 67 bytes in 4 blocks
iconv(UTF-16LE,UTF8) contains 67 bytes in 4 blocks
UNNAMED contains 13 bytes in 1 blocks
which is much better than before

auto-derived from the type you are allocating. This is done with
basically zero overhead by relying on the stringify operator in cpp
producing string constants.
the result is that --leak-check nicely names all pointers that come
from talloc_p()

This version does the following:
1) talloc_free(), talloc_realloc() and talloc_steal() lose their
(redundent) first arguments
2) you can use _any_ talloc pointer as a talloc context to allocate
more memory. This allows you to create complex data structures
where the top level structure is the logical parent of the next
level down, and those are the parents of the level below
that. Then destroy either the lot with a single talloc_free() or
destroy any sub-part with a talloc_free() of that part
3) you can name any pointer. Use talloc_named() which is just like
talloc() but takes the printf style name argument as well as the
parent context and the size.
The whole thing ends up being a very simple piece of code, although
some of the pointer walking gets hairy.
So far, I'm just using the new talloc() like the old one. The next
step is to actually take advantage of the new interface
properly. Expect some new commits soon that simplify some common
coding styles in samba4 by using the new talloc().

added ldbedit, a _really_ useful command
added ldbadd, ldbdel, ldbsearch and ldbmodify to build
solved lots of timezone issues, we now pass the torture tests with
client and server in different zones
fixed several build issues
I know this breaks the no-LDAP build. Wait till I arrive in San Jose for that
fix.

implements the epm_Lookup() call, I'll add the other important calls
soon. I was rather pleased to find that epm_Lookup() worked first
time, which is particularly surprising given its complexity.
This required quite a bit of new infrastructure:
* a generic way of handling dcerpc policy handles in the rpc server
* added type checked varients of talloc. These are much less error
prone. I'd like to move to using these for nearly all uses of
talloc.
* added more dcerpc fault handling code, and translation from
NTSTATUS to a dcerpc fault code
* added data_blob_talloc_zero() for allocating an initially zero
blob
* added a endpoint enumeration hook in the dcerpc endpoint server
operations
