That information is not available with SMB2.
The server domain might be retrieved using wkssvc_NetWkstaGetInfo(),
but that's currently not used.

I already thought about filling the server_os or server_type with
the protocol string, e.g. "SMB3_11 Server".

There's also a bug in 4.6 and master where we fail to fill in this
fields even with NT1 and older protocols (I'll post patches for this soon).
