* Modified the authentication module interface so that it's possible to use a
  filter for authentication information. This removed the dependency problems
  we had with the Windows DLLs

Note that the API for HTAA_newModule changed to allow registering the filter
for the authentication information. If you were previously
 using the library's initialization functions (e.g., HTAAInit), the change will
be transparent for you. Otherwise, you'll have to take into account the new
interface:

==============
PUBLIC HTAAModule * HTAA_newModule (const char *        scheme,
                                    HTNetBefore *       before,
                                    HTNetAfter *        after,
                                    HTNetAfter *        update,
                                    HTUTree_gc *        gc)
==============

If you don't have a filter for the authentication information, just use the NULL
parameter. You may look at HTInit.c:HTAAInit() to see how it is done.

MULTI-THREADED VERSION

It now compilen using g++

no more tmpnam(); Introduced HTFormat_delete(); Mem-fix in AA; no more printf()

First version having AA using HTRequest structure.  This seems to work
pretty well with server, but I've been unable to test it with linemode
which doesn't compile currently, so prepare yourself for client
coredumps. :-(  It may also be that AA just simply doesn't let you know
about itself at all -- so it may also appear to be dead instead of
killing the whole client.  Now I'm going home to get some sleep --
staying up 34 hours is starting to get to me.

Added some minor bug fixes and stuff suggested by marca:
	* added a new function HTPromptUsernameAndPassword()
	  so that GUI clients can have just a single authentication
	  dialog box
	* nobody and nogroup are looked up by name (no longer
	  hardcoded values)
	* understands also negative uid/gid values
	* added /../ check also in the AA package
	* AA now takes place only if accessing a local file (otherwise
	  what the daemon does when running as a gateway is funny...)
	* broken fail rule hanling by AA fixed
	* some ""s to NULLs and other minor things

Added first version of access authorization in.
