catch ServiceFailed exception on volume export

Revert r9154.

There are a number of issues that can result from one setting the netbios, service names from DNS. DNS is less limiting than netbios (15 character limit) in terms of length, and Windows does some tricky things if a netbios name has already been taken on the network, but it turns out that NetBIOS permits some characters not allowed in the DNS spec (!, $, etc). See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909264 for more details.

This also (according to jhixson), breaks the AD tie-in because it uses the netbios [database?] field somewhere in the code.

Add a knob to enable/disable avahi from within the CIFS global settings, labeled as "Zeroconf discovery" (it's the technical term for what Bonjour and Avahi do), and add in needed bit to take away cifs advertisement when needed.

This solves the low hanging fruit with service interoperability, but like I discovered through testing, there are a number of gaps (still) where avahi isn't being reloaded or started properly (in part because of how we order / invoke the services and in part because of bugs in the rc.d scripts for avahi-app). You have to start/stop services as changing global settings doesn't actually reload configuration in an intuitive manner; I have a private patch that I believe will alleviate this, but it needs more testing before it's released into the wild.

This fixes the immediate issue for the item I requested in ticket # 970. Please note that while I requested that Avahi should be disabled by default, I was thinking of a one customer scenario where he wanted it off, when in reality home users (and other customers) most likely want out of the box configuration that works with Macs. So the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, thus Zeroconf discovery will remain on by default for now.

Divine the server name/netbios name in a more intuitive manner (from the hostname). It's not perfect (avahi still falls flat on its face sometimes after we HUP it), but it's better than the way things are currently done.

NOTE: Upgrading to this image _will_ break your shares if you are using a server name / netbios name that doesn't match with the hostname and you're attempting to connect to the symbolic name of the server and not the IP address. Caveat emptor.

This addresses ticket # 1060.

missing migration for r9147

Remove the local access knob from within the GUI. Its the description of what it did and what it actually does didn't make sense pre-r8956 (it doesn't do anything of value post-r8956).
