shishi_realm_default_guess - API function

Description

       Guesses  a  realm  based  on  getdomainname(),  which  really  responds  with a NIS/YP domain, but if set
       properly, it might be a good first guess.  If this NIS  query  fails,  call  gethostname(),  and  on  its
       failure, fall back to returning the artificial string "could-not-guess-default-realm".

       Note  that  the  hostname is not trimmed off of the string returned by gethostname(), thus pretending the
       local host name is a valid realm name.  The resulting corner case could merit a check that the  suggested
       realm is distinct from the fully qualifies host, and if not, simply strip the host name from the returned
       string  before it is used in an application.  One reason for sticking with the present behaviour, is that
       some systems respond with a non-qualified host name as reply from gethostname().
