Martin Babinsky a8e30e9671 ipa-client-install: try to get host TGT several times before giving up
New option '--kinit-attempts' enables the host to make multiple attempts to
obtain host TGT from master before giving up and aborting client installation.

In addition, all kinit attempts were replaced by calls to
'ipautil.kinit_keytab' and 'ipautil.kinit_password'.

Code to be installed on any client that wants to be in an IPA domain.

Mostly consists of a tool for Linux systems that will help configure the
client so it will work properly in a kerberized environment.

It also includes several ways to configure Firefox to do single sign-on.

The two methods on the client side are:

1. globalsetup.sh. This modifies the global Firefox installation so that
   any profiles created will be pre-configured.

2. usersetup.sh. This will update a user's existing profile.

The downside of #1 is that an rpm -V will return a failure. It will also
need to be run with every update of Firefox.

One a profile contains the proper preferences it will be unaffected by
upgrades to Firefox. 

The downside of #2 is that every user would need to run this each time they
create a new profile.

There is a third, server-side method. See ipa-server/README for details.
