Bug Description

It is common to see the following error/log output when trying to communicate with remote windows servers:

    Impacket v0.9.12 - Copyright 2002-2014 Core Security Technologies

    Trying protocol 51666/SMB...

    SMB SessionError: STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE(The attempted logon is invalid. This is either due to a bad username or authentication information.)

It would be useful to read this output explicitly (if it is the consistent output across most windows servers) and raise a specific authentication failure exception to inform the caller that the supplied credentials were invalid.

What currently happens is SubprocessError: subprocess with pid: 12345 has terminated unexpectedly (not informative!)

    interpret stderr and raise custom exceptions

    1. Detects failed authentication message from Windows systems
        and raises SatoriSMBAuthenticationException
    2. Detects error message stating that the user has been locked
        out of a Windows system and raises SatoriSMBLockoutException
    3. Detects error message stating shared access flags are
        incompatible on a Windows system and raises
        SatoriSMBFileSharingException

    Consolidates (DRY) the logic which listens to command output in
    smb.py so that the custom Exceptions mentioned above can be raised
    if any of the known error output is encountered.

    Unchanged: A non-zero exit status with an unknown error message
                raises a SubprocessError including that error message.

    Previously, all error messages corresponding to non-zero exit codes
    were "unknown".
