Bug in rfc1783_decode() in 3.4 and master

I noticed doing some work in master that the current rfc1783_decode()
has:
while ((p=strchr(p,'+')))
*p = ' ';
As far as I can see, this was merged incorrectly from Samba4 when the
string util code was brought back in common in Nov last year. The
Samba3 code is deliberately missing this loop, with this loop move to
SWAT specificity.
Anyway, the long and the short of it is that ntlm_auth uses
rfc1783_decode(), and when Squid calls the plaintext ntlm_auth helpers,
it does not replace space characters with +, so this merge (I suspect)
breaks squid.
I'm importing a full rfc1783 decode and encode impelementation from
squid, but a patch to 3.4 may wish to just remove those lines.
(Anyway, I'm tired, but I wanted to mention this before I merged in the
replacement code)
