 * Plugins for Controlling Identity Selection and Credential Acquisition

 * In order to acquire credentials, Kerberos needs to obtain one or more secrets from the user.
 * These secrets may be a certificate, password, SecurID pin, or information from a smart card.  
 * If obtaining the secret requires interaction with the user, the Kerberos libraries call a
 * "prompter callback" to display a dialog or command line prompt to request information from
 * the user.  If you want to provide your own custom dialogs or command line prompts, 
 * the KIM APIs provide a plugin mechanism for replacing the default prompt ui with your own.  
 *
 * The function table / structure which a KIM ui plugin module must export 
 * as "kim_ui_0".  If the interfaces work correctly, future versions of the 
 * table will add either more callbacks or more arguments to callbacks, and 
 * in both cases we'll be able to wrap the v0 functions.
