Reorganize everything again???
- Splits ffi/memory stuff into a bunch of stuff in the pam_ffi module.
- Builds infrastructure for passing Messages and Responses.
- Adds tests for some things at least.

//! A safe, nonstick interface to PAM. //! //! This implements a type-safe library to interact with PAM. //! Currently, it implements a subset of PAM useful for implementing a module. //! //! To write a new PAM module using this crate: //! //! 1. Create a `dylib` crate. //! 2. Implement a subset of the functions in the [`PamModule`] trait //! corresponding to what you want your module to do. //! In the simplest case (for a new password-based authenticator), //! this will be the [`PamModule::authenticate`] function. //! 3. Export your PAM module using the [`pam_hooks!`] macro. //! 4. Build and install the dynamic library. //! This usually entails placing it at //! <code>/usr/lib/security/pam_<var>your_module</var>.so</code>, //! or maybe //! <code>/usr/lib/<var>your-architecture</var>/security/pam_<var>your_module</var>.so</code>. //! //! For general information on writing PAM modules, see //! [The Linux-PAM Module Writers' Guide][module-guide] //! //!
