ANNOUNCE: cifs-utils release 6.6 ready for download

Time for a new cifs-utils release!

The main change in this release is a set of cleanups to cifs.upcall to make it more efficient and work better with alternate style credcaches. No longer does it blithely stumble around in /tmp looking for credcaches. We now just use the default credcache that to which the krb5.conf points.

Go forth and download!

    aclocal: fix typo in idmap.m4

    We really don't want to do the same check twice.

    cifs.upcall: use krb5 routines to get default ccname

    Currently we end up groveling around in /tmp, trying to guess what the credcache will be. Instead, just get the default ccname for the user, and then see if it has a valid tgt. If it doesn't then we try to use the keytab to init the credcache before proceeding.

    cifs.upcall: make the krb5_context a static global variable
    There's no need to keep initing a new context for every function. Just do it once and reuse as needed.

    cifs.upcall: remove KRB5_TC_OPENCLOSE

    The header file says that this is deprecated, and all of the info I've seen about it mentioned that it was for performance more than correctness. It dates back to the original code dump from Igor, so I think we're safe to just drop it at this point.

    cifs.upcall: make get_tgt_time take a ccache arg

    ...instead of dealing with the ccname. Push resolution of the cache into the caller.

    cifs.upcall: stop passing around ccache name strings

    Instead, get a ccache handle and pass that around. That way we can keep the cache open until the program is complete as well.
