docs: add a prebuilt manpage to the distribution
Add a prebuilt manpage for nfs-ls and change the makefiles to not build the
manpage by default. This is because the manpages change rarely and this removes
the need for an internet connection when building the library.
(previously building the library required downloading a template from
sourceforge)
Update the README and mention that you now need to manually rebuild the
manpages if the manpage sources change.

Track waiting requests in a hash table, by xid
NFS servers can respond to requests in any order, and they do. In our
tests there is also some clustering to the responses; it could be
because eg. requests are served synchronously if the data is in the cache.
Introduce a hash table so that we are able to find the pdu quickly in
all cases, assuming random distribution of the responses.

Optimisations to the pdu queues
When making many concurrent requests (as is likely in any performance
criticial application), the use of SLIST_REMOVE and SLIST_ADD_END are
a severe bottleneck because of their linear search.
I considered using a double-linked list but it was unnecessary to
allocate the additional memory for each list entry.
Instead, continue to use a single-linked list but retain:
* a pointer to the end of the list; and
* a pointer to the previous entry during a linear search.
The former would makes append operations O(1) time, and the latter
does the same for removal. We can do this because removal only happens
within the linear search, and there is no random access to the queue.

IPV6: Add basic IPv6 support

Dont check for NFS errors in the LOOKUP during READDIRPLUS emulation
On servers with extended attributes, a server copuld be set up to
deny READ-ATTRIBUTES for the libnfs user.
This means that READDIRPLUS will no longer work since it will need to
stat() and thus READ-ATTRIBUTE in order to prepare the response.
Libnfs has READDIRPLUS emulation for the cases where this command fails
by switching to old READDIR to scan all the file names and then a LOOKUP loop for getting the file attributes.
Most of the time the purpose for this emulation is to handle the case where the server simply does not support READDIRPLUS at all, which sometimes is the case for embedded systems with userspace nfs servers.
In this case, where files just have READ-ATTRIBUTE deny for the libnfs user,
this will also fail and trigger the fallback to READDIR + LOOKUP-loop.
If the LOOKUP fails for this loop, then just ignore trying to update the attributes we have for this object, but do not fail the actual READDIRPLUS emulation.
This addresses a permissions issue reported by a XBMC user in issue #60
Spotted by clang analyzer.
This introduces another allocation to create a copy of the target path
of a rename in case it needs to be reported via rpc_set_error - it might
be a better idea to avoid the allocation and have a slightly less informative
error message?
