Samba 3.0.32 - internal change notify on share directory

[Dina Fine]

Hi

It seems that when using change notify (internal only with no inotify
mechanism) the notification doesn't work on share directory path for
create and rename operations (and works only for delete).

It appears that when working on share directory, the add change notify
request receives the following path "/share_path/." and cuts off the
"\." at the path end. The notification request is saved with
"/share_path" path.

But on notify_trigger (fro example when creating file_name),
notify_fname creates a full path: "/share_path/./file_name" and doesn't
cut off the prefix "./" of the relative file path. Then notify_trigger
searches for the relevant subscription "/share_path/." in the tdb file
and of course fails.

The attached patch solves the problem.
