The API version the client sends can now be used to check what the client
expects or is capable of.
All version tests IPA does will be be named and listed in one module,
ipalib.capabilities, which includes a function to test a specific capability
against an API version.
Similarly to Python's __future__ module, capabilities.py also serves as
documentation of backwards-incompatible changes to the API.
The first capability to be defined is "messages". Recent enough clients can
accept a list of warnings or other info under the "messages" key in the
result dict.
If a JSON client does not send the API version, it is assumed this is a testing
client (e.g. curl from the command line). Such a client "has" all capabilities,
but it will always receive a warning mentioning that forward compatibility
is not guaranteed.
If a XML client does not send the API version, it is assumed it uses the API
version before capabilities were introduced. (This is to keep backwards
compatibility with clients containing bug https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3294)
Whenever a capability is added, the API version must be incremented.
To ensure that, capabilities are written to API.txt and checked by
`makeapi --validate`.

When unknown keyword arguments are passed to a Command, raise an
error instead of ignoring them.
Options used when IPA calls its commands internally are listed
in a new Command attribute called internal_options, and allowed.
Previous patches (0b01751c, c45174d6, c5689e7f) made IPA not use
unknown keyword arguments in its own commands and tests, but since
that some violations were reintroduced in permission_find and tests.
Fix those.
Tests included; both a frontend unittest and a XML-RPC test via the
ping plugin (which was untested previously).
