  kadm5: pre/post-commit plugin hook for kadm5 update operations (#397)

This change adds plugin support to the kadmin libraries for performing
actions before and after a password change is committed to the KDC database
and after a change is made to the attributes of a principal (specifically,
a change to DISALLOW_ALL_TIX).

This change adds a hook_libraries configuration option to the [kadmin]
section of krb5.conf (or kdc.conf if you use that file) that must be set
to load the module. That configuration option is in the form:

[kadmin]
  hook_libraries = /usr/local/lib/krb5/plugins/kadm5_hook/krb5_sync.so

where the value is the full path to the plugin that you want to load. If
this option is not present, kadmind will not load a plugin and the changes
from the patch will be inactive. If this option is given and the plugin
cannot be loaded, kadmind startup will abort with a (hopefully useful)
error message in syslog.

Any plugin used with this patch must expose a public function named
kadm5_hook_init of type kadm5_hook_init_t that returns a kadm5_hook structure.
See sample_hook.c for an example of this initialization function.

typedef struct kadm5_hook {
    const char *name;
    uint32_t version;
    const char *vendor;
    void (KRB5_CALLCONV *fini)(krb5_context, void *data);

    krb5_error_code (KRB5_CALLCONV *chpass)(krb5_context context,
   void *data,
   enum kadm5_hook_stage stage,
                                      krb5_error_code code,
                                      krb5_const_principal princ,
                                      uint32_t flags,
                                      size_t n_ks_tuple,
                                      krb5_key_salt_tuple *ks_tuple,
                                      const char *password,
                                      char **error_msg);
    ...
};

where enum kadm5_hook_stage is:

enum kadm5_hook_stage {
    KADM5_HOOK_STAGE_PRECOMMIT,
    KADM5_HOOK_STAGE_POSTCOMMIT
};

init creates a hook context that is passed into all subsequent calls.
chpass is called for password changes, create is called for principal
creation (with the newly-created principal in the kadm5_principal_ent_t
argument), and modify is called when a principal is modified. The purpose of
the remaining functions should be self-explanatory.

returning 0 on success and a Kerberos error code on failure, setting the
Kerberos error message in the provided context. The error code passed in is
valid for post-commit hooks and contains the result of the update operation.

  kadm5: move password quality checks out of daemons and into libkadm5

Note that this has a slight behavior change to c89d3f3b in order to continue
allow kadmin in local mode to bypass password quality checks. Password quality
checks are always bypassed if the *client* kadmin principal is kadmin/admin,
i.e. that of the kadmin service itself. This is the case when running kadmin in
local mode. As this is the equivalent of a superuser account, one would
anticipate that deployments would use specific administrator instances for
appropriate ACLs for day-to-day administration; operations by these will be
subject to password quality checks if enforce_on_admin_set is TRUE, or if the
user is changing their own password.
