smb: client: fix DFS mount against old servers with NTLMSSP

Browse source 
Old Windows servers will return not fully qualified DFS targets by
default as specified in

  MS-DFSC 3.2.5.5 Receiving a Root Referral Request or Link Referral
  Request

    | Servers SHOULD<30> return fully qualified DNS host names of
    | targets in responses to root referral requests and link referral
    | requests.
    | ...
    | <30> Section 3.2.5.5: By default, Windows Server 2003, Windows
    | Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, and
    | Windows Server 2012 R2 return DNS host names that are not fully
    | qualified for targets.

Fix this by converting all NetBIOS host names from DFS targets to
FQDNs and try resolving them first if DNS domain name was provided in
NTLMSSP CHALLENGE_MESSAGE message from previous SMB2_SESSION_SETUP.
This also prevents the client from translating the DFS target
hostnames to another domain depending on the network domain search
order.
