Dave Ward 85c1b71826 Merged V3.2 to HEAD
16662: LDAP sync: improved group association filtering, referential integrity checking, deletion strategy and performance tuning of batch sizes
   16648: ETHREEOH-2752: Improved ticket validation fix
      - Invalidate user's tickets during person deletion rather than validation or it can mess up chained validation
   16647: ETHREEOH-2534: Fixed Sharepoint NTLM authentication
      - user details were never getting cached in the session
   16579: Small improvement to LDAP error reporting
      - Committed errors counted before successes in a logging interval
   16515: LDAP sync performance
      - Improved full sync strategy - run differential queries to work out required updates/additions and full queries to work out required deletions. Saves updating unchanged nodes.
      - Use a TreeSet rather than a HashSet to gather group associations in an attempt to avoid blowing the heap size
   16498: More LDAP performance improvements
      - Uses thread pool with 4 worker threads and blocking queue to process returned results. The number of worker threads can be controlled by the synchronization.workerThreads property.
      - Switched LDAP connection pooling back on again
      - Group Associations processsed individually so that errors are collated and we get a better idea of their throughput
      - Fixed potential bug. Group membership resolution done with isolated LDAP context to avoid cookies from paging creeping in.
   16424: Try switching off LDAP connection pooling to see if it works better with our flaky server.
   16414: Further LDAP fault tolerance
      - Log causes of group member resolution failures where possible
   16413: More fault tolerance for LDAP sync
      - Always commit last sync times before overall sync is complete to avoid the 'forgetting' of differential sync information
      - DN comparisons should be case insensitive to avoid issues resolving DNs to user and group IDs
   16398: Improved monitoring and fault tolerance for LDAP sync
      - When the batch is complete a summary of the number of errors and the last error stack trace will be logged at ERROR level
      - Each individual error is logged at WARN level and progress information (including % complete) is collated and logged at INFO level after a configurable interval
      - In the Enterprise Edition all metrics can be monitored in real time through JMX
      - Sanity testing to be performed by Mike!
   16319: Merged HEAD to V3.2
      16316: ALFCOM-3397: JBoss 5 compatibility fix
         - Relative paths used by LDAP subsystem configuration weren't being resolved correctly
         - See also https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-6548 and https://jira.springsource.org/browse/SPR-5120
   16272: ETHREEOH-2752: Once more with feeling!
   16261: ETHREEOH-2752: Correct exception propagation.
   16260: ETHREEOH-2752: Fix ticket validation
      - Current ticket was getting forgotten by previous fix
      - Person validation in CHECK mode now done AFTER the current user is set, so that the current ticket is remembered
   16243: ETHREEOH-2752: Improve ticket validation used by all authentication filters
      - Now takes into account whether person actually exists or not
      - Tickets for non-nonexistent persons are now considered invalid and cached session information is invalidated
      - New BaseAuthenticationFilter superclass for all authentication filters
      - Improved fix to ETHREEOH-2839: WebDAV user is cached consistently using a different session attribute from the Web Client
   16233: ETHREEOH-2754: Correction to previous checkin.
      - relogin for SSO authentication, logout for normal login page
      - logout is default
   16232: ETHREEOH-2754: Log Out Action outcome passed as a parameter
      - relogin for SSO authentication, login for normal login page
      - Means the log out link always leads to the correct place, even when the session has expired
      - Also lowered ticket validation error logging to DEBUG level to avoid unnecessary noise in the logs from expired sessions
   16220: ETHREEOH-2839: Fixed potential ClassCastExceptions when Alfresco accessed via WebDAV and Web Client links in same browser
      - WebDAV side no longer directly casts session user to a WebDAVUser
      - ContextListener no longer casts session user to web client user
      - Web client side will 'promote' session user to a web client User if necessary via AuthenticationHelper
      - All authentication filters made to use appropriate AuthenticationHelper methods
   16211: ETHREEOH-2835: LDAP sync batches user and group deletions as well as creations
      - Also improved logging of sync failures
   16197: ETHREEOH-2782: LDAP subsystems now support search-based user DN resolution
      - When ldap.authentication.userNameFormat isn't set (now the default) converts a user ID to a DN by running ldap.synchronization.personQuery with an extra condition tacked on the end to find the user by ID
      - Structured directories and authentication by attributes not in the DN such as email address now supported
   16189: ALFCOM-3283: Prevent errors when user accepts an invite when not logged in
      - new isGuest attribute propagated to user object
      - header component (used by accept-invite page) needs to avoid calling prefs and site webscripts for guest user
      - Conditional stuff in header template changed to use user.isGuest
