auth_wbc diverged from auth_winbind via this commit:

    Introduce a new authentication backend auth_onefs_wb
    
    This new backend is custom tailored to onefs' unique requirements:
    1) No fallback logic
    2) Does not validate the domain of the user
    3) Handles unencrypted passwords

I don't thin OneFS ever made it to Samba 4.x, this links says they are

Please remove.
