Update to the modules system. Fixed:
 - get rid of smb_probe_module
 - merge older updates from 3.0
 - introduced register_subsystem() and register_backend() functions
 - adapt ntvfs and charset to use new register functions
 - made smb_load_modules() work recursively (e.g. 'preload modules = /usr/lib/samba')
 - got rid of some old remains

Things that still need work:
 - Did I break tankFS? I don't think so, but I can't test it here :-(
 - Add 'postload modules = ' (for modules that need to be loaded after fork() in smbd, if applicable)
 - Convert RPC, auth, passdb, etc to use new register_{subsystem,backend}() functions
 - Accept wildcards in 'preload modules' option, instead of loading recursively
(This used to be commit 7512b9ab1a)

README 

This is the base of the new NTVFS subsystem for Samba. The model for
NTVFS backends is quite different than for the older style VFS
backends, in particular:

- the NTVFS backends receive windows style file names, although they
  are in the unix charset (usually UTF8). This means the backend is
  responsible for mapping windows filename conventions to unix
  filename conventions if necessary

- the NTVFS backends are responsible for changing effective UID before
  calling any OS local filesystem operations (if needed). The
  become_*() functions are provided to make this easier.

- the NTVFS backends are responsible for resolving DFS paths

- each NTVFS backend handles either disk, printer or IPC$ shares,
  rather than one backend handling all types

- the entry points of the NTVFS backends correspond closely with basic
  SMB operations, wheres the old VFS was modelled directly on the
  POSIX filesystem interface.

- the NTVFS backends are responsible for all semantic mappings, such
  as mapping dos file attributes, ACLs, file ownership and file times
