Modify ipalib.rpc to support JSON-RPC in addition to XML-RPC.
This is done by subclassing and extending xmlrpclib, because
our existing code relies on xmlrpclib internals.
The URI to use is given in the new jsonrpc_uri env variable. When
it is not given, it is generated from xmlrpc_uri by replacing
/xml with /json.
The rpc_json_uri env variable existed before, but was unused,
undocumented and not set the install scripts.
This patch removes it in favor of jsonrpc_uri (for consistency
with xmlrpc_uri).
Add the rpc_protocol env variable to control the protocol
IPA uses. rpc_protocol defaults to 'jsonrpc', but may be changed
to 'xmlrpc'.
Make backend.Executioner and tests use the backend specified by
rpc_protocol.
For compatibility with unwrap_xml, decoding JSON now gives tuples
instead of lists.

Add three new ipa-advise plugins, to facilitate configuration of
legacy clients using nss-pam-ldapd:
* config-redhat-nss-pam-ldapd
* config-generic-linux-nss-pam-ldapd
* config-freebsd-nss-pam-ldapd

Old versions of SSSD do not directly support cross-realm trusts between IPA
and AD. This patch introduces plugins for the ipa-advise tool, which should
help with configuring an old version of SSSD (1.5-1.8) to gain access to
resources in trusted domain.
Since the configuration steps differ depending on whether the platform includes
the authconfig tool, two plugins are needed:
* config-redhat-sssd-before-1-9 - provides configuration for Red Hat based
systems, as these system include the autconfig utility
* config-generic-sssd-before-1-9 - provides configuration for other platforms

Now the list of available advices is neatly formatted:
-------------------------
List of available advices
-------------------------
config-fedora-authconfig : Authconfig instructions for configuring Fedora
18/19 client with IPA server without use of SSSD.
The advice header printing has been reformatted to conform with the changes.
Provides a pluggable framework for generating configuration
scriptlets and instructions for various machine setups and use
cases.
Creates a new ipa-advise command, available to root user
on the IPA server.
Also provides an example configuration plugin,
config-fedora-authconfig.
