yes, I've already added a WINBIND-STRUCT-PING test (and a
WINBIND-NDR-PING in a git branch).

And for client -> wb-parent -> client the struct based protocol is
better as we just pass zero buffers, but for client-> wb-parent ->
wb-child -> wb-parent -> client the NDR based one is faster.

I'll add more performance tests with other calls, when they're supported.
