Removed master_no_passdb setting. Added pass setting which can be used to do the same thing, and other things. Now setting pass=yes to a passdb continues to next passdb if the lookup succeeded. This allows eg. requiring the user to be in multiple passdbs, or doing a username conversion before running the actual userdb, etc.
