Mario Fetka 5da600c2a5 dosutils: match Novell paths for flags and trustees

Move FLAG, GRANT and REMOVE closer to the request paths used by the
Novell tools and extend the DOS comparison tests.

FLAG now reads attributes through the old NCP22 directory scan path and
writes them through NCP22/25 Set Directory/File Information. This keeps
extended attributes such as Delete Inhibit and Rename Inhibit intact and
matches the Novell behavior observed in the server logs.

GRANT now prefers NCP22/27 SetTrustee with an NCP87 fallback. Supervisor
rights are expanded like Novell does, so granting S sends and reports the
full SRWCEMFA mask. The visible output, path formatting and error text
are adjusted to match the Novell baseline.

REMOVE now prefers NCP22/2B DelTrustee with an NCP87 fallback. The
DelTrustee request layout is corrected, /SUBDIRS handling is aligned
with Novell, and the output/error text is matched to the baseline.

The FLAG, FLAGDIR, GRANT and REMOVE tests now compare NPUBLIC baselines
against the PUBLIC implementations and add delayed NOPASSUSER readback
checks using DLYSTRT and the maintainer LOGIN password option.

GRANT comparison test

Scripts:

GRNTSTA.BAT creates F:\GRNTEST, compares Novell \NPUBLIC\GRANT output against \PUBLIC\GRANT, and uses NOPASSUSER as trustee target.
GRNTC.BAT is the delayed user-context helper started through DLYSTRT. It logs in as NOPASSUSER and captures effective RIGHTS output for the grants prepared by GRNTSTA.
GRNTZIP.BAT packages the result tree as F:\GRNTCMP\GRNTSTA.ZIP.

Run as SUPERVISOR or an equivalent user.

For the automatic user-context part, set the Supervisor password first:

SET LGNTPWD=your-supervisor-password
GRNTSTA

Result directories:

OUT contains Novell GRANT output.
PUBOUT contains public implementation GRANT output.
COMPARE.LOG compares OUT against PUBOUT.
UNOV contains Novell RIGHTS output captured as NOPASSUSER.
UPUB contains public implementation RIGHTS output captured as NOPASSUSER.
UCOMP.LOG compares UNOV against UPUB.
SETUP and USETUP contain setup/cleanup command output.

Covered grant cases:

single rights: R, W, C, E, M, F, A, S
combinations: R F, R W, R W C, R W C E, R W C E M F A, S R W C E M F A, ALL, N
mixed combinations: R E, R W F, R C M, R F A, W C M, E M F, R W C M F, R E M A, S R, S R F, S W C M
file trustee cases with /FILES
recursive directory cases with /SUBDIRECTORIES
help, no-argument and error/grammar cases

GRNTZIP remains manual so the result tree can be inspected before packaging.
