This patch contains 2 parts.

The first part is a small utility to create and validate the current
API. To do this it needs to load ipalib which on a fresh system
introduces a few problems, namely that it relies on a python plugin
to set the default encoding to utf8. For our purposes we can skip that.
It is also important that any optional plugins be loadable so the
API can be examined.

The second part is a version exchange between the client and server.
The version has a major and a minor version. The major verion is
updated whenever existing API changes. The minor version is updated when
new API is added. A request will be rejected if either the major versions
don't match or if the client major version is higher than then server
major version (though by implication new API would return a command not
found if allowed to proceed).

To determine the API version of the server from a client use the ping
command.

The changes include:
 * Change license blobs in source files to mention GPLv3+ not GPLv2 only
 * Add GPLv3+ license text
 * Package COPYING not LICENSE as the license blobs (even the old ones)
   mention COPYING specifically, it is also more common, I think

We used to install it as ipa, now installing it as ipapython. The rpm
is still ipa-python.
