The absence of this "new options for handling corrupted MIME mail" has been
the source of much grief for many Courier MTA admins.  That alone makes this
upgrade worth it.

Otherwise this patch is kinda big due to a lot of rewriting and clean up.

courier/files/patch-courier_submit2.C goes away.
courier/Makefile.own is a new file to greatly simplify
courier/files/patch-courier_perms.sh.in

This patch now *really* depends on getting the port of SysConfTool committed.

So please close PR31475 before comitting this patch.
