This patch is adding a build of kerberosauth.xpi (FF Kerberos authentication extension).
Currently the build is done in install phase of FreeIPA server. It is to allow signing of the extension by singing certificate. The signing might not be necessary because the only outcome is that in extension installation FF doesn't show that the maker is not verified. It shows text: 'Object signing cert'. This might be a bug in httpinstance.py:262(db.create_signing_cert("Signing-Cert", "Object Signing Cert", ca_db)) The value is in place of hostname parameter.
If the extension is not signed, it can be created in rpm build phase, which should make upgrades easier. Current implementation doesn't handle upgrades yet.
In order to keep extension and config pages not dependent on a realm, a krb.js.teplate file was created. This template is used for creating a /usr/share/ipa/html/krb.js file in install phase which holds FreeIPA's realm and domain information. This information can be then used by config pages by importing this file.

IPA Server
What is it?
-----------
For efficiency, compliance and risk mitigation, organizations need to
centrally manage and correlate vital security information including:
* Identity (machine, user, virtual machines, groups, authentication
credentials)
* Policy (configuration settings, access control information)
* Audit (events, logs, analysis thereof)
Since these are not new problems. there exist many approaches and
products focused on addressing them. However, these tend to have the
following weaknesses:
* Focus on solving identity management across the enterprise has meant
less focus on policy and audit.
* Vendor focus on Web identity management problems has meant less well
developed solutions for central management of the Linux and Unix
world's vital security info. Organizations are forced to maintain
a hodgepodge of internal and proprietary solutions at high TCO.
* Proprietary security products don't easily provide access to the
vital security information they collect or manage. This makes it
difficult to synchronize and analyze effectively.
