[Pkg-samba-maint] updating samba to current upstream

Hi.

I grabbed the source git tree and updated it to upstream 4.15.6 (not to 4.16.0 yet
which has just been released - I want something a bit more stable than shiny new).
Removing two local patches in the process, which has been either applied (the mdfind
rename) or implemented differently (the "builtin" trusted domain fix).

Only after that I realized I need to update all libs *first* (tdb/talloc/tevent/ldb)
*before* updating samba.  I'm doing this now, hopefully to be ready by tomorrow.

I asked for access to the samba team in salsa yesterday. For now I can publish the
repositories somewhere just to show what's there for someone who's familiar with
samba packaging to review, or I can - after getting access - push stuff into
separate branches, again, for review.

Unless someone else is already working on this.  Anyone is doing anything?

Thanks,

/mjt
