It was like that before, but when we found new trusted domains from our
dc we added them at the beginning.

The WINBIND-STRUCT-LIST_TRUSTDOM torture test now checks if the first 2
domains are available and give a result for the WINBIND_GETDCNAME call.

And if we would add a new trusted domain to the beginning of the list,
the tests can't do cross tests. The 3rd till last domain can fail the
WINBIND_GETDCNAME test and only gives a warning unless
- --option="torture:strict mode=yes" is passed to smbtorture.
