Codepage directory definition is a mess with Samba 3.3

Description
In Samba 3.3 the location definition of the codepage files (upcase.dat, lowcase.dat and valid.dat) results in a mess:
We define the codepages directory to be a directory named "codepages" as a subdirectory of the executable directory.
The result is that depending upon which component is looking for the files they are searched in the following places:
ndpsmb.dll via EVFSCTL.EXE: x:\ecs\bin\codepages\* ndpsmb.dll via NetDrive: %NDFSDIR%\codepages\* Any Samba executable: exedir\codepages\*
Considering there are likely the commandline utilities installed another set is searched at x:\ecs\system\samba\codepages\*
Proposed solution: Let's move the codepages directory to %ETC%\samba\codepages similar to the way we have done it for other Samba data files.

given the fact, that we never delivered those files with the client, i'm almost 100% sure they are not needed. the server always finds them. moving it to the 3.5 line of code, as we will fix it there.

GIven the fact that in Samba 3.0 these files were in exedir\lib the average Samba user might end up with half a dozen of sets of these files...
