release 0.9.7 of nss-pam-ldapd

[Arthur de Jong <arthur [at] arthurdejong.org>]

This is an update for the 0.9 development branch of nss-pam-ldapd that
includes a few improvements and bugfixes. This release should be
considered stable.

The pynslcd implementation still is not considered as stable as nslcd.

A summary of the changes since 0.9.6:

* check existence of TLS certificate and key files on start-up
* fix password policy expiration handling when password was about to
  expire (thanks Mathieu Baeumler for tracking this down)
* fix updating of shadowLastChange attribute when chasing referrals
  (thanks Vasilis Tsiligiannis)
* add an pam_authc_ppolicy option to allows completely disabling
  ppolicy handling (thanks Mathieu Baeumler)
* fix handling of nss_disable_enumeration (thanks Andrew W Elble for
  pointing this out)
* display human readable password expiry messages (thanks Mathieu
  Baeumler)
* fix error when changing PAM user name (thanks 依云)
* support substring expressions ${var:offset:length} in attribute
  mapping (thanks Giovanni Mascellani)
* also honor the ignorecase option in PAM
