From: Angelo Ruocco <angeloruocco90@xxxxxxxxx>
The piece of information "who created a certain cftype" is not stored
anywhere, thus a cftype is not able to know who is its owner.
This commit addresses this problem by adding a new field in the cftype
structure that enables the name of its owner to be explicitly set.
