SMB3: Add support for multidialect negotiate (SMB2.1 and later)
With the need to discourage use of less secure dialect, SMB1 (CIFS), we temporarily upgraded the dialect to SMB3 in 4.13, but since there are various servers which only support SMB2.1 (2.1 is more secure than CIFS/SMB1) but not optimal for a default dialect - add support for multidialect negotiation. cifs.ko will now request SMB2.1 or later (ie SMB2.1 or SMB3.0, SMB3.02) and the server will pick the latest most secure one it can support. In addition since we are sending multidialect negotiate, add support for secure negotiate to validate that a man in the middle didn't downgrade us.
