Christian Heimes f90e137a17 Sort and shuffle SRV record by priority and weight
On multiple occasions, SRV query answers were not properly sorted by
priority. Records with same priority weren't randomized and shuffled.
This caused FreeIPA to contact the same remote peer instead of
distributing the load across all available servers.

Two new helper functions now take care of SRV queries. sort_prio_weight()
sorts SRV and URI records. query_srv() combines SRV lookup with
sort_prio_weight().

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 python-dns to
            try to detect this information first and will fall back to
            /etc/ipa/default.conf if that fails.

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
