Added new method for wallet-backend, update
update will work generally like get, but only for objects that have a concept of updating content automatically, like keytabs and passwords. For these, the content will be updated before sending to the client. In a later release get for keytabs will be modified to never update the kvno before sending to the user, and so the unchanging flag will be phased out in lieu of explicitly using the method that does what you want.

+ Added a new command to wallet-backend, update. This will update the
+ contents of an object before running a get on it, and is only valid
+ for objects that can automatically get new content, such as keytab
+ and password objects. A keytab will get a new kvno regardless of
+ the unchanging flag if called with update. In a future release get
+ will be changed to never update a keytab, and the unchanging flag
+ will be ignored. Please start moving to use get or update as the
+ situation warrants.

Added an acl replace command, to change all objects owned by one ACL
to be owned by another.
