Andrew Tridgell af237084ec r7633: this patch started as an attempt to make the dcerpc code use a given
event_context for the socket_connect() call, so that when things that
use dcerpc are running alongside anything else it doesn't block the
whole process during a connect.

Then of course I needed to change any code that created a dcerpc
connection (such as the auth code) to also take an event context, and
anything that called that and so on .... thus the size of the patch.

There were 3 places where I punted:

  - abartlet wanted me to add a gensec_set_event_context() call
    instead of adding it to the gensec init calls. Andrew, my
    apologies for not doing this. I didn't do it as adding a new
    parameter allowed me to catch all the callers with the
    compiler. Now that its done, we could go back and use
    gensec_set_event_context()

  - the ejs code calls auth initialisation, which means it should pass
    in the event context from the web server. I punted on that. Needs fixing.

  - I used a NULL event context in dcom_get_pipe(). This is equivalent
    to what we did already, but should be fixed to use a callers event
    context. Jelmer, can you think of a clean way to do that?

I also cleaned up a couple of things:

 - libnet_context_destroy() makes no sense. I removed it.

 - removed some unused vars in various places

This directory contains Samba's very simple COM implementation. 
It is by no means finished yet. 

The main aim of this implementation is for use by our DCOM implementation, 
which lives in the dcom subdirectory. The local version is used mostly for
testing.

More information on this effort can be found in the DCOM whitepaper in 
the lorikeet repository.
