rsync-3.0.6 on cygwin-1.7

[Lapo Luchini]

A new 3.0.6 package is now available on cygwin-1.7; I don't plan to
upgrade Cygwin-1.5 packages anymore, so if you want newer releases on
rsync please upgrade to 1.7, with proper care:
http://cygwin.com/#beta-test

This release includes a small patch on rsync configure to detect IPv6
and xattr on Cygwin, please consider including them (or a modification
of them) upstream to help people have a full-featured rsync on cygwin
also when compiling it manually and not thru the cygport package.

xattr right now should work on SMB and will be fixed on NTFS very soon.
The xattrs test fails because Cygwin doesn't currently have a setfattr
utility, so right now the xattr feature is not thoroughly tested and is
considered experimental.
