[PATCH]: wbc: expand wbcAuthUserParams to pass alternate domain\user

I've recreated it locally now.  If the only reason to extend the
wbcAuthUserParams struct is for local accounts, the target name
could technically be read from the "client nonce" in the local
account provider.  This always seems to be accurate.  Even for
example, when WinXP fills in the domain name as the IP address:

   net use * \\aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd\share /user:username

Although technically the client nonce could be random stuff
so if any client ever used a structure other than the one
used by Windows, we could be in trouble.  It is of course,
much easier to just treat the nonce as an opaque blob rather
than trying to parse it.  But I expect that Windows has to
parse the blob as well as a standalone server.

It also seems, that if in make_user_info_map() we mapped
client_domain to "our-authoritative-sam-name" we would be
ok without extending the interface.




cheers, jerry
