[PATCH] Don't ucase configured realm

[Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer]

Hi Benjamin,

SAMBA 3 might accept such a change - we at the SAMBA 4 side for sure not 
(it would require such an amount of work to change this - nearly 
undoable). And as Andrew Bartlett stated here: also the "real AD" 
upcases always the realm.

Greets,
Matthias
