As we now have the combined 'master' branch with source3/ and source4/
sub directories, we can think about where to move common code
and the build magic for a combined 'make'.

I'd propose to move them to source/, to that all 3 ways of building
code in the master branch have the same weight. I assume have the magic
of the combined build in the top level directory would give more weight
to the most experimental way of building samba.

Comments please!
