[PATCH] Handle non-canonical fspaths in the authz file

From: Daniel Shahaf <danielsh_at_elego.de>
Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2011 14:18:57 +0300

Bringing it here as it's an incompatible change. If no objections I'll
commit it for 1.8.

[[[
Path-based authz: error out on non-canonical fspaths in the input. (We
already canonicalize fspaths passed to the API for access testing.)

This is an incompatible change: some previously-accepted authz files
will now cause visible errors. However, before this change the semantics
of such authz files might have been different from what a casual gloss
over them would have suggested.

* subversion/libsvn_repos/authz.c
  (authz_validate_section): Validate the fspath part of the section name.

* subversion/tests/libsvn_repos/repos-test.c
  (authz): Add a basic regression test for this.
