There is kind of a tradeoff here - installing those files while we know
nearly every user is bound to change them anyway, means that nearly every
user will get config file prompts upon upgrades. However, there's indeed
the advantage that things just work, in some sense, out of the box.

I've decided to stay close to simpleSAMLphp upstream in this: from now on
we will ship all files that a default SSP tarball contains in its config/
directory, in our /etc/simplesamlphp. This makes the behaviour of the
Debian package close to upstream and hence also close to existing
documentation. This will be incorporated in the next upload.
