Unit tests for ipa-extdom-extop plugin use nss_files.so.2 module to test the
functionality instead of relying on SSSD API or nss_sss.so.2 module. The latter
two cannot be used in build environment.
nss_files.so.2 always tries to open /etc/passwd and /etc/group. In past, we
overloaded 'fopen()' to change the path to opened file but this stops working
after glibc consolidate file opening in nss_files with the code starting at
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=299210c1fa67e2dfb564475986fce11cd33db9ad,
this method is not usable anymore and builds against glibc 2.31.9000+ fail in
cmocka unit test execution in Rawhide.
Apply an alternative approach that uses a new user namespace to unshare the
test from its parent and chroot to the test data where expected /etc/passwd and
/etc/group are provided. This method works only on Linux, thus only run the
unit test on Linux.
In case unshare() or chroot() fail, we have to skip tests that use
nss_files.so.2.

Refactor nsswitch operations in ipa-extdom-extop plugin to allow use
of timeout-enabled nsswitch calls provided by libsss_nss_idmap.
Standard POSIX nsswitch API has no way to cancel requests which may
cause ipa-extdom-extop requests to hang far too long and potentially
exhaust LDAP server workers. In addition, glibc nsswitch API iterates
through all nsswitch modules one by one and with multiple parallel
requests a lock up may happen in an unrelated nsswitch module like
nss_files.so.2.
A solution to the latter issue is to directly load nss_sss.so.2 plugin
and utilize it. This, however, does not solve a problem with lack of
cancellable API.
With SSSD 1.16.1, libsss_nss_idmap provides a timeout-enabled variant of
nsswitch API that is directly integrated with SSSD client side machinery
used by nss_sss.so.2. As result, this API can be used instead of loading
nss_sss.so.2 directly.
To support older SSSD version, both direct loading of nss_sss.so.2 and
new timeout-enabled API are supported by this changeset. An API to
abstract both is designed to be a mix between internal glibc nsswitch
API and external nsswitch API that libsss_nss_idmap mimics. API does not
expose per-call timeout. Instead, it allows to set a timeout per
nsswitch operation context to reduce requirements on information
a caller has to maintain.
A choice which API to use is made at configure time.
In order to test the API, a cmocka test is updated to explicitly load
nss_files.so.2 as a backend. Since use of nss_sss.so.2 would always
depend on availablility of SSSD, predictable testing would not be
possible without it otherwise. Also, cmocka test does not use
nss_wrapper anymore because nss_wrapper overrides higher level glibc
nsswitch API while we are loading an individual nsswitch module
directly.
As result, cmocka test overrides fopen() call used by nss_files.so.2 to
load /etc/passwd and /etc/group. An overridden version changes paths to
/etc/passwd and /etc/group to a local test_data/passwd and
test_data/group. This way we can continue testing a backend API for
ipa-extdom-extop with the same data as with nss_wrapper.

Add explicit NSPR_CFLAGS and NSS_CFLAGS where NSPR_LIBS and NSS_LIBS is
used.
Use DIRSRV_CFLAGS rather than hardcode -I/usr/include/dirsrv.
Append NSPR_CFLAGS to DIRSRV_CFLAGS in ./configure as slapi-plugin.h
includes nspr.h.

Automake manual section 13 What Gets Cleaned says that make maintainer-clean
should not remove files necessary for subsequent runs of ./configure.
It practically means that all usage of MAINTAINERCLEANFILES were incorrect
so I've removed them.

All the headers are now listed in _SOURCES variable.
It seems weird but this is what GNU Automake manual suggests in section
9.2 Header files:
Headers used by programs or convenience libraries are not installed.
The noinst_HEADERS variable can be used for such headers.
However when the header actually belongs to a single convenience library
or program, we recommend listing it in the program’s or library’s
_SOURCES variable (see Program Sources) instead of in noinst_HEADERS.
This is clearer for the Makefile.am reader.
noinst_HEADERS would be the right variable to use in a directory containing
only headers and no associated library or program.

This is step forward working VPATH builds which cleanly separate sources

Python and web UI likely require more work to make VPATH builds working.

The getXXYYY_r() calls require a buffer to store the variable data of
the passwd and group structs. If the provided buffer is too small ERANGE
is returned and the caller can try with a larger buffer again.
Cmocka/cwrap based unit-tests for get*_r_wrapper() are added.

With the new ipa_server_mode SSSD is able to read user and group data
from trusted AD domains directly and makes this data available via the
NSS responder. With this mode enabled winbind is not needed anymore to
lookup users and groups of trusted domains.
This patch removed the calls to winbind from the extdom plugin and
replaces them with standard POSIX calls like getpwnam() and calls from
libsss_nss_idmap to lookup SIDs.
Fixes https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3637 because now the
extdom plugin does not need to handle idranges anymore, but everything
is done inside SSSD.
This extop can be used by clients of the IPA domain, e.g. sssd, to
retrieve data from trusted external domains. It can be used e.g. to map
Windows SIDs to user or groups names and back.
