This new release fixes failure to report when too many placeholders are queued for reporting.

Going to eos 4.4.32 that adds:
- FST [SSD improvements](https://its.cern.ch/jira/browse/EOS-3349)
- `xrootd` BackUpExists bit

Going to eos 4.4.30 as v0.0-173 was broken: eos 4.4.27 was compiled against xrootd 4.8.x and was silently corrupting CTA setup for TPC in prod...

CTA version for deployment on XPs PPS instances. Plenty of news since v0.0-172 (2 months ago):
new queuing, improved EOS GC performance, new CI scripts for stress tests, Postgres support, EOS 4.4.27 and quarkDB improvements....

CTA version for testing the EOS garbage collectors

Further merged master into repack in preparation of merging repack into master.

The start and end session log messages of cta-taped are noe ready.

Upgraded to EOS 4.4.18-20181211213834git95c105 in order to get
xrootd-ssi-protobuf-interface v0.29 and the fix for FTSs reporting
failed close() calls.

xrootd-ssi-protobuf-interface v0.29 adds the renewable resources
option that should hopefully increase the upper limit on the
rate of messages that can be sent from EOS to CTA.

Added "media type" and "vendor" to the properties of a tape.

Added mediaType, vendor and vo member variables to the
catalogue::TapeForWriting and dataStructures::Tape

Test release with partial implementation of repack and the out of tape server reporting to EOS.

All EOS WFE actions are now synchronous - Requires EOS >= 4.4.13-20181124110340git38aaea2

Retrieve requests now honour disabled tapes

Better timeouts for 'cta-admin af ls'.  Fixed 'cta-admin tp ls'.  Temporarily removed dependency of cta-tape-developer-acs-tools on cta-lib.
