BUG#: 9892
TITLE: Implement cookie-based session management.

DESCRIPTION: PAM (and GSSAPI) are quite slow when doing authentication.
Therefore cookie-based authentication is implemented. It is off by default
and it must be explicitly turned on by setting httpSessionTimeout
configuration option to nozero value.

BUG#: 9883
TITLE: Implement HTTP Negotiate authentication

DESCRIPTION: Implemented HTTP Negotiate authentication, as described in
RFC 4559. It uses SPNEGO protocol, GSSAPI as authentication API and MIT
Kerberos as GSSAPI implementation. The implementation should be
interchangeable, any GSSAPI implementation should work.

BUG#: 2196
TITLE: Copyright update

DESCRIPTION: Update all .cpp and .h files for new license and

xmlwriter.cpp a comment line //=========  which drove the strip
function nuts.  These were fixed.  This has been compiled and tested
on windows.
