Petr Viktorin f19218f7d8 Remove duplicate and unused utility code
IPA has some unused code from abandoned features (Radius, ipa 1.x user
input, commant-line tab completion), as well as some duplicate utilities.
This patch cleans up the utility modules.

Duplicate code consolidated into ipapython.ipautil:
    {ipalib.util,ipaserver.ipautil,ipapython.ipautil}.realm_to_suffix
    {ipaserver,ipapython}.ipautil.CIDict
            (with style improvements from the ipaserver version)
    {ipapython.entity,ipaserver.ipautil}.utf8_encode_value
    {ipapython.entity,ipaserver.ipautil}.utf8_encode_values

ipalib.util.get_fqdn was removed in favor of the same function in
ipaserver.install.installutils

Removed unused code:
    ipalib.util:
        load_plugins_in_dir
        import_plugins_subpackage
        make_repr (was imported but unused; also removed from tests)

    ipapython.ipautil:
        format_list
        parse_key_value_pairs
        read_pairs_file
        read_items_file
        user_input_plain
        AttributeValueCompleter
        ItemCompleter

    ipaserver.ipautil:
        get_gsserror (a different version exists in ipapython.ipautil)

ipaserver.ipautil ended up empty and is removed entirely.

This is a set of libraries common to IPA clients and servers though mostly
geared currently towards command-line tools.

A brief overview:

config.py - identify the IPA server domain and realm. It uses dnsclient to
            try to detect this information first and will fall back to
            /etc/ipa/default.conf if that fails.
dnsclient.py - find IPA information via DNS

ipautil.py - helper functions

entity.py - entity is the main data type. User and Group extend this class
            (but don't add anything currently).

ipavalidate.py - basic data validation routines
