SPF implementation for qmail

Highlighted by tetenyi

This is an SPF implementation for qmail.
SPF is something like a DNS based "reverse MX" system to designate permitted senders for mails depending on the domain name. The goal is to disallow sender address forgery.
The patch is entirely written using the qmail string and DNS functions, and thus completely integrated into qmail without external dependencies.
It can check incoming mails inside the SMTP daemon, add Received-SPF lines and optionally block undesired transfers. The check is performed at the envelope level.
