extdom plugin handles external operation over which SSSD asks IPA server about
trusted domain users not found through normal paths but detected to belong
to the trusted domains associated with IPA realm.
SSSD expects that user or group name in the response will be unqualified
because domain name for the user or group is also included in the response.
Strip domain name from the name if getgrnam_r/getpwnam_r calls returned fully
qualified name which includes the domain name we are asked to handle.
The code already expects that fully-qualified names are following user@domain
convention so we are simply tracking whether '@' symbol is present and is followed
by the domain name.
With the new ipa_server_mode SSSD is able to read user and group data
from trusted AD domains directly and makes this data available via the
NSS responder. With this mode enabled winbind is not needed anymore to
lookup users and groups of trusted domains.
This patch removed the calls to winbind from the extdom plugin and
replaces them with standard POSIX calls like getpwnam() and calls from
libsss_nss_idmap to lookup SIDs.
Fixes https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3637 because now the
extdom plugin does not need to handle idranges anymore, but everything
is done inside SSSD.
Request with a SID as input parameter do not contain the domain name,
hence is must be tried to resolve the SID first before the corresponding
domain can be looked up.

This extop can be used by clients of the IPA domain, e.g. sssd, to
retrieve data from trusted external domains. It can be used e.g. to map
Windows SIDs to user or groups names and back.
