This patch adds an on-disk cache for STS policies.
Policies are cached by domain, and stored on files in a single
directory. The files will have as mtime the time when the policy
expires, this makes the store simpler, as it can avoid keeping
additional metadata.
There is no in-memory caching. This may be added in the future, but for
now disk is good enough for our purposes.
The "mx" field is required, a policy without it is invalid, so add a
check for it.

for more background, in particular the following paragraph:
> The "mx" field is required, so if it is missing, the policy is invalid
> and should not be honored. (It doesn't make sense to honor the policy

> doesn't prevent DNS injection, so it's of relatively little value.)
This EXPERIMENTAL patch has a basic implementation of MTA-STS (Strict
Transport Security), based on the current draft at
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-uta-mta-sts-02.
It integrates the policy fetching and checking into the smtp-check tool
for convenience, but not yet in chasquid itself.
This is a proof of concept. Many features and tests are missing; in
particular, there is no caching at all yet.
