The current release does very little with the decision plugin architecture - we ship source code for a trivial plugin (which always returns true) but we don't appear to build it or ship it (of course, why would we?).

This pull request adds a new plugin, "blacklist decision", which can be enabled with the following configuration line:

pfc.decisionlib libXrdBlacklistDecision.so /etc/xrootd/blacklist-cache.cfg

where /etc/xrootd/blacklist-cache.cfg is a list of globs. For example:

/bar/baz/foo
/foo//some_file
/foo//.*

This is shipped as part of the xrootd-server-libs RPM.
