Generate netbios compliant hostname (workaround for Samba bug #900908). 

The MATE desktop pulls in 'samba-common-bin' via 'caja-share' causing
installations (except main-server) with 'desktop=mate' to break. Instead
of e.g. 'auto-mac-11-22-33-44-55-66', now 'am-112233445566' is generated.
(Closes: #900629).
