Add an initialization retry in the bos, vos, and pts commands to
fallback to the server configuration directory when initialization fails
with the client configuration directory. This allows admins to run
unauthenticated bos, vos, and pts commands on servers without a client
configuration (including symlinks created by the bosserver) without
any extra command line options.
Perform the initialization retry only when the -localauth or -config
options are not given. The bos, vos, and pts commands already use the
server configuration path when the -localauth option is given, so there
is no point in retrying the same path. The vos and pts -config option
specifies the path to be used, so we do not fallback to a different
directory when the user specifies the configuration path to be used.
While here, change the scope of the confdir variable in vos.c from a
global to a local variable, since it is only used within the
MyBeforeProc() function.
This change does not add a vsu_ClientInit() retry in the bos salvage
command. That command always requires authorization, so when run without
-localauth requires a token (and therefore a cache manager and client
cell configuration).
Update the bos, vos, and pts man pages to describe this new fallback
method to lookup the configuration directory. (The AFSCONF environment
variable and .AFSCONF files are currently undocumented in the man pages.
They should be documented or removed from the code in a future change.)
