env.c: add logic similar to pam_env's stripping of single and double
quotes around /etc/environment env vars; fixes literal quotes in LANG when
using sudo -i; LP: #387262.

* Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
 - debian/rules: Disable lecture, enable tty_tickets by default. (Ubuntu
   specific)
 - Add debian/sudo_root.8: Explanation of root handling through sudo.
   Install it in debian/rules. (Ubuntu specific)
 - sudo.c: If the user successfully authenticated and he is in the 'admin'
   group, then create a stamp ~/.sudo_as_admin_successful. Our default bash
   profile checks for this and displays a short intro about sudo if the
   flag is not present. (Ubuntu specific)
 - env.c: Add "http_proxy" to initial_keepenv_table, so that it is kept
   for "sudo apt-get ...". (Ubuntu specific EBW hack, should disappear at
   some point)
 - debian/{rules,postinst,sudo-ldap.postinst}: Disable init script
   installation. Debian reintroduced it because /var/run tmpfs is not the
   default there, but has been on Ubuntu for ages.

* SECURITY UPDATE: privilege escalation via non-default system groups.
  - parse.c: upstream fix for CVE-2009-0034:

sudo.c: Drop usage of locale again, to revert back to the 1.6.8 behaviour.
fnmatch() and glob() behave differently under different locales and thus
cause undefined behaviour with (admittedly underspecified) character range
globs such as "[a-Z]". Patch taken from upstream CVS, see
http://www.gratisoft.us/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=296 (LP: #228046)

* Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
 - logging.c: Ignore SIGPIPE when creating an error email, so that non-fatal
   error messages (like "unable to resolve local host name") do not lead to
   being killed with SIGPIPE if /usr/bin/sendmail does not exist or crashes.
   (LP #32906, http://www.gratisoft.us/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=285)
 - debian/postinst: put "NOPASSWD" example at the bottom, so that
   uncommenting it will actually work (later entries override former ones).
   (LP #131399, Debian #479616)

debian/postinst: Fix a typo, and add a more helpful comment about the
ordering and overriding. (LP: #131399)

env.c: Add "http_proxy" to initial_keepenv_table, so that it is kept
for "sudo apt-get ...". This is an EBW workaround for a design problem of
not having a system-wide proxy setting, but in order to not break existing
practice for upgrades we have to live with it for Hardy.
