If there are dirty buffers when the file server becomes unresponsive,
the cache manager will attempt to write them repeatedly resulting in
use of 100% of the cpu of the machine until the file server becomes
responsive.
This patch reduces the cpu utilization by ensuring that only the first
in a list of buffers on the same file needs to fail with timed out,
all down, all busy, all offline, or clock skew. The other dirty buffers
will just be skipped. A small delay is enforced in the buf_IncrSync
thread between invocation.
This patch is not a complete fix for the problem. The buf_IncrSync
thread needs to become more intelligent in order to avoid attempts to
write to volumes that are known to be inaccessible.

Updates to chapter one of the Admin Guide. Remove references to the
Authentication Server, add references to a Kerberos server, revise ntpd
parts to reflect the fact that OpenAFS doesn't ship ntpd, and removed
the distinction between the US and non-US versions of the Update Server.

rxi_Findcbi, rxi_FIndIfnet, rxi_FindIfMTU "failure" end up returning
the RX_REMOTE_PACKET_SIZE as the mtu to use unless we allow our override
to apply, so we do that. then, add an afsd switch to allow setting it.
afsd man page update required and will follow.

Add a new Registry distribution method for CellServDB info.
The CellServDB registry schema is as follows:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\CellServDB\[cellname]\
"LinkedCell" REG_SZ "[cellname]"
"Description" REG_SZ "[comment]"
"ForceDNS" DWORD {0,1}
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OpenAFS\Client\CellServDB\[cellname]\[servername]\
"HostName" REG_SZ "[hostname]"
"IPv4Address" REG_SZ "[address]"
"IPv6Address" REG_SZ "[address]" <future>
"Comment" REG_SZ "[comment]"
"Rank" DWORD "0..65535"
"Clone" DWORD "{0,1}" <future - server only>
"vlserver" DWORD "7003" <future>
"ptserver" DWORD ... <future>
ForceDNS is implied non-zero if there are no [servername]
keys under the [cellname] key. Otherwise, ForceDNS is zero.
If [servername] keys are specified and none of them evaluate
to a valid server configuration, the return code is success.
This prevents failover to the CellServDB file or DNS.
Registry distributed info takes precedence over the CellServDB file.
Registry support has been added to both the Windows specific cm_config
interface and the auth/cellconfig interface utilized by aklog, the
services, and the vast majority of support commands.
Enhance the DNS lookup for Cell vlserver info to support ranking info
which is used with _vlserver._udp SRV record lookups when AFSDB records
are not present. Priorities become ranks.

libafsconf.dll has been present since OpenAFS 1.0. However,
for some unknown reason the components that it consists of
(cm_dns.obj, cm_config.obj, cm_nls.obj) have been staticly
linked into exes and dlls all over the code base. This commit
removes all of the static references and replaces them with
libafsconf.lib.
libafsconf.dll is also moved from Client\Program to Common
because it is now linked to by server and utility components.
