polkit 0.104

Hey,

Here's a new polkit release. There are three main things in this
compared to release 0.103

 - Test suite - by Nikki VonHollen of Google, Yup, we now
   have a test suite hooked up with 'make check'. Right now
   the coverage isn't great but it does test some of the core
   things.

 - Netgroup backend. Also by Nikki VonHollen of Google. This
   feature is useful for enterprisey deployments - see e.g.
   http://directory.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Howto... and
   http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/pkloca...
   for how it can be used in polkit.

 - Systemd support - by Matthias Clasen of Red Hat. This change
   makes it possible to use systemd instead of ConsoleKit for
   tracking log-in sessions. We still support ConsoleKit (but we
   default to using systemd if available) since at least one of
   the big distros (Ubuntu) has not yet switched to systemd.
