This patch adds a session manager and support for caching
authentication in the session. Major elements of the patch are:
* Add a session manager to support cookie based sessions which
stores session data in a memcached entry.
* Add ipalib/krb_utils.py which contains functions to parse ccache
names, format principals, format KRB timestamps, and a KRB_CCache
class which reads ccache entry and allows one to extract information
such as the principal, credentials, credential timestamps, etc.
* Move krb constants defined in ipalib/rpc.py to ipa_krb_utils.py so
that all kerberos items are co-located.
* Modify javascript in ipa.js so that the IPA.command() RPC call
checks for authentication needed error response and if it receives
it sends a GET request to /ipa/login URL to refresh credentials.
* Add session_auth_duration config item to constants.py, used to
configure how long a session remains valid.
* Add parse_time_duration utility to ipalib/util.py. Used to parse the
session_auth_duration config item.
* Update the default.conf.5 man page to document session_auth_duration
config item (also added documentation for log_manager config items
which had been inadvertantly omitted from a previous commit).
* Add SessionError object to ipalib/errors.py
* Move Kerberos protection in Apache config from /ipa to /ipa/xml and
/ipa/login
* Add SessionCCache class to session.py to manage temporary Kerberos
ccache file in effect for the duration of an RPC command.
* Adds a krblogin plugin used to implement the /ipa/login
handler. login handler sets the session expiration time, currently
60 minutes or the expiration of the TGT, whichever is shorter. It
also copies the ccache provied by mod_auth_kerb into the session
data. The json handler will later extract and validate the ccache
belonging to the session.
* Refactored the WSGI handlers so that json and xlmrpc could have
independent behavior, this also moves where create and destroy
context occurs, now done in the individual handler rather than the
parent class.
* The json handler now looks up the session data, validates the ccache
bound to the session, if it's expired replies with authenicated
needed error.
* Add documentation to session.py. Fully documents the entire process,
got questions, read the doc.
* Add exclusions to make-lint as needed.
Having float type as a base type for floating point parameters in
ipalib introduces several issues, e.g. problem with representation
or value comparison. Python language provides a Decimal type which
help overcome these issues.
This patch replaces a float type and Float parameter with a
decimal.Decimal type in Decimal parameter. A precision attribute
was added to Decimal parameter that can be used to limit a number
of decimal places in parameter representation. This approach fixes
a problem with API.txt validation where comparison of float values
may fail on different architectures due to float representation error.
In order to safely transfer the parameter value over RPC it is
being converted to string which is then converted back to
decimal.Decimal number on a server side.

The JSON server has been modified to return the version number
in all responses. The UI has been modified to keep the version
obtained during env operation and check the version returned
in subsequent operations. If the version changes the UI will
reload itself.
Ticket #946
The JSON server has been modified to return the principal name
in all responses. The UI has been modified to keep the principal
obtained during whoami operation and check the principal returned
in subsequent operations. If the principal changes the UI will
reload itself.
Ticket #1400
This is to prevent a Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack where
a rogue server tricks a user who was logged into the FreeIPA
management interface into visiting a specially-crafted URL where
the attacker could perform FreeIPA oonfiguration changes with the
privileges of the logged-in user.

This patch changes the way plugins are initialized. Instead of
finalizing all the plugins at once, plugins are finalized only after
they are accessed (currently applies to Command, Object and
Attribute subclasses, only in CLI by default).
This change provides significant performance boost, as only the
plugins that are actually used are finalized.

Ticket 1627 contained a (temporary hack-ish) fix for dnszone-add
name_from_ip validation which works fine for CLI. However, when
the command is not proceeded via CLI and sent directly to the
RPC server, the server throws Internal Server Error.
Make sure that the server returns a reasonable error. Also implement
2 unit cases testing this option
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1941
We should more gracefully handle if the TGT has not been forwarded
than returning a 500 error.
Also catch and display KerberosErrors from ping() in the client better.
ticket 1101
Request logging on the server only happened if you added verbose=True
or debug=True to the IPA config file. We should log the basics at
least: who, what, result.
Move a lot of entries from info to debug logging as well.

This patch removes some individual work-arounds of converting strings
to unicode, they only masked the problem. String values are not
passed to the validator or normalizers so things like adding the
realm automatically to services weren't happening.
ticket 941
The changes include:
* Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
* Add GPLv3+ license text
* Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think

When using the dogtag CA we can control what the subject of an issued
certificate is regardless of what is in the CSR, we just use the CN value.
The selfsign CA does not have this capability. The subject format must
match the configured format or certificate requests are rejected.
The default format is CN=%s,O=IPA. certmonger by default issues requests
with just CN so all requests would fail if using the selfsign CA.
This subject base is stored in cn=ipaconfig so we can just fetch that
value in the enrollment process and pass it to certmonger to request
the right thing.
Note that this also fixes ipa-join to work with the new argument passing
mechanism.
Traverse the objects passed to JSON for encoding and decoding.
When binary data is seen during encode replace the binary
data with a dict {'__base64__' : base64_encoding_of_binary_value}.
On decode if a dict is seen whose single key is '__base64__' replace
that dict with the base64 decoded value of the key's value.
We want to only allow a machine to request a certificate for itself, not for
other machines. I've added a new taksgroup which will allow this.
The requesting IP is resolved and compared to the subject of the CSR to
determine if they are the same host. The same is done with the service
principal. Subject alt names are not queried yet.
This does not yet grant machines actual permission to request certificates
yet, that is still limited to the taskgroup request_certs.
