[PATCH] Check flat names when searching for sub-domains as well

[Sumit Bose]

Hi,

this patch add support to use short/flat/NetBIOS domain names in a fully
qualifies user name. This becomes important when you want to use samba
in a setup with trusted domains.

Samba isn't very flexible here and looks for user names like
SHORTDOMNAME\username (only the delimiter '' can be changed). If sssd
is configured with a regular expression like

(?P<domain>[^\]*?)\?(?P<name>[^\]+$)

to match samba's expectation currently only the DNS domain names are
compared with the requested domains and not the flat names.

bye,
Sumit
