Attribute type description schema parser uses integer for syntax length, should 
be BigInteger

                 Key: DIRSHARED-36
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSHARED-36
             Project: Directory Shared
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.9.15
            Reporter: Stefan Seelmann
            Assignee: Stefan Seelmann
             Fix For: 1.0.0-RC1


The schema parser assumes that the syntax length of an attribute type 
description is an integer. RFC4512 states that this is a number:

    number  = DIGIT / ( LDIGIT 1*DIGIT )

As an example, Novell eDirectory defines the following AT where the length is 
greather then Integer.MAX_VALUE and so parsing fails:
( 2.16.840.1.113719.1.1.4.1.123 NAME 'certificateValidityInterval' SYNTAX 
1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.27{4294967295} SINGLE-VALUE X-NDS_NAME 'Certificate 
Validity Interval' X-NDS_LOWER_BOUND '60' X-NDS_UPPER_BOUND '-1' 
X-NDS_NONREMOVABLE '1' )

We should use a BigInteger and check that the number is positive.
