A session array: $_SESSION['SMB4PHP'][$host][$attribute] introduced as storage for configurations static (but not to hardwire) for smb4php itself (e.g. smbclient binary pathname) and for remote hosts (e.g. LANG to use contacting this host via SMB, or time zone offset added by this host in mtime results). External applications (e.g. ownCloud, Drupal, etc.) may set values in this array overriding autoconfigurated settings or hardwired defaults.

New get_remote() function introduced to collect attributes from remote hosts at first relevant contact.

In mtime calculation, time zone offset added by remote storage (and asked once in session by 'net time zone' call, if was not set) considered as well.
