The smbconf library provides a generic interface for Samba configuration
backends. In order to access these backends, including the read-write
registry backend, we add a new python binding for smbconf - the general
interface library.

This initial set of bindings covers some basic read-only calls.  This
includes function calls for listing shares (config sections) and getting
the parameters of the shares. The `init_txt` construction function must
be used to get a new SMBConf object.  This is done so that other
backends, specifically the registry backend from source3 can be used in
the future. Those will provide their own construction funcs.
