We messed up smbc_readdirplus :-(

Hi Puran,
I'm looking at Red Hat bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1569868
and realized we made a mistake in the
implementation of smbc_readdirplus().
struct libsmb_file_info
should have been defined as a *superset*
of the stat struct that smbc_stat
returns, but currently it is missing
the st_ino, st_dev, st_mode and st_blocks
fields in order to be a superset of struct stat.
We actually *have* this data as returned
from the SMB2_FIND_ID_BOTH_DIRECTORY_INFO
call when enumerating the directory, but
then throw it away when populating the
struct libsmb_file_info struct.
I think the best way forward is to
add a smbc_readdirplus_ex() call that
returns a new 'struct libsmb_file_info_ex'
struct that includes these extra fields.
Comments from other Samba Team members ?
I wish we'd gotten it right the first
time though, but that's probably my (our?)
fault :-(.
Cheers,
Jeremy.
