allows specifying an RFC1001 target "called" name (netbios name of the
server, which can now be pecified as mount option "servernetbiosname"
but will eventually be passed in automatically on retry of host down
error messages caused when server refuses to handle default server
name and can not handle port 445). This is an important step, but
additional testing and fixup is needed to add remaining function needed
for these.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
