pycrypto dependency

Hello,

In most recent version pysmb added dependency to pycrypto, which unfortunately does not distribute wheels (nothing unexpected looking at when was the last release done).

I did some digging, and I noticed pycrypto/pycrypto#301 and https://pypi.org/project/pycryptodome/ being mentioned as an alternative.

I will fix pycrypto building in the project I'm involved in, just leaving it here as an open question if maybe pysmb should change dependency for Crypto. requirements.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I wasn't aware that pycrypto is no longer being maintained.
I will try to find a python implementation for the RC4 cipher; that should eliminate any dependency on 3rd-party crypto suite.
