Summary: check_radius doesn't detect or report authentication errors

Initial Comment:
The check_radius plugin exits with status 0 and no messages if it gets a "result" it isn't expecting. This issue is tickled when you use an incorrect password. In that case, radiusclient returns REJECT_RC (2).

The attached patch (against 1.4.13) adds a case to handle REJECT_RC and also complains if an unexpected result is returned.

Although I did not actually test the snapshot version, examination of the code indicates that 1.4.14-61-g45e2 still has these issues.
