LDB no longer a standalone tarball
----------------------------------
LDB, Samba's LDAP-like local database and the power behind the Samba
AD DC, is no longer available to build as a distinct tarball, but is
instead provided as an optional public library.
If you need ldb as a public library, say to build sssd, then use
./configure --private-libraries='!ldb'
This re-integration allows LDB tests to use the Samba's full selftest
system, including our knownfail infrastructure, and decreases the work
required during security releases as a coordinated release of the ldb
tarball is not also required.
This approach has been demonstrated already in Debian, which is already
building Samba and LDB is this way.
As part of this work, the pyldb-util public library, not known to be
used by any other software, is made private to Samba.
