"NT Authority" mapping failures

Hi Jeremy,

I came across this ancient gem: :)

0492effcf36bc1229d0d2e9250b6c6c36af0b117

By chance, do you remember the reasoning for ignoring mapping failures with 
these two domain?

I'm asking because I just stumbled across that currently mapping users and 
groups from "NT Authority" fails. I discovered this (though I fainlty remember I 
ran into this before) when modifying CI to run raw.acls tests against the 
enhanced vfs_nfs4acl_xattr module.

Most test failed because lookupname "NT Authority/Authenticated Users" isn't 
working. I have a WIP patch to fix this (attached) and while poking around I 
came across the above commit that paves above such mapping failures in the 
posix_acls.c code.

Thoughts? :)

Thanks!

Subject: [PATCH] WIP: winbindd: handle "NT Authority"

Without this:

  $ bin/wbinfo -n "NT Authority/Authenticated Users"
  failed to call wbcLookupName: WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND
  Could not lookup name NT Authority/Authenticated Users

  $ bin/wbinfo --group-info="NT Authority/Authenticated Users"
  failed to call wbcGetgrnam: WBC_ERR_DOMAIN_NOT_FOUND
  Could not get info for group NT Authority/Authenticated Users

With the patch:

  $ bin/wbinfo -n "NT Authority/Authenticated Users"
  S-1-5-11 SID_WKN_GROUP (5)

  $ bin/wbinfo --group-info="NT Authority/Authenticated Users"
  NT AUTHORITY/authenticated users:
