[issue2753] Fix issue 2753.

Relax requests aimed at the repo Parent path from authz control.

* subversion/mod_authz_svn/mod_authz_svn.c
   (create_authz_svn_dir_config): Canonicalize conf->base_path.
   (req_check_access): When canonicalized 'uri' and 'conf->base_path' are same
    allow the request.
   (access_checker, check_user_id, auth_checker):
    Initialize repos_path to 'NULL' otherwise it can point
    to stray values when req_check_access relaxes certain requests without
    initialising the out parameters.
In a perfect world, I would expect that requests to the parent directory
would not be authz-denied, but that each repository in the listing of
repositories would be authz-checked against the authz configuration.  In
other words, say I have a parent-path with three repositories: calc, watch,
lamp.  And say I have an authz file like so:

[lamp:/]
* =


I would expect that a request to the parent directory would yield a listing
that included the 'calc' and 'watch' repositories, but not the 'lamp' one.

Is that the case?

No.

These authz rule should *not* list anything inside the repo 'lamp' but not lamp itself when requested for the parent path root.


The feature that you ask for is possible only if 'mod_dav_svn'(which implements SVNListParentPath) consults mod_authz_svn(or some authorizer) for every item listed which is not the case today.
