[PATCH] Proposed merge of some NTLMSSP crypto

In my git tree 'ntlmssp-merge-wip' I have the current state of my
efforts to merge the NTLMSSP code between Samba3 and Samba4.

My hope here is to reduce the duplication of the crypto code, and make
an eventual full merge of this important subsystem easier.

git://git.samba.org/abartlet/samba.git ntlmssp-merge-wip

The tests seem to pass in Samba4, but I still need to look into some
Samba3 issues.  It will be important to test with Windows clients too,
and any assistance in that area, particularly against Samba3 will be
most appreciated.

I've taken a number of approaches to reduce the risk - in particular
I've only taken the chance to merge the already very similar code after
the authentication success and the client key exchange calculation.  As
such, this has no impact (postive or negative) on event loops, async or
the actual NTLMSSP negotiation. 

Any review or testing most appreciated,

Andrew Bartlett
