METRON-1844: Allow for LDAP to be used for authentication and roles
## Contributor Comments
I went through the defunct Knox SSO feature branch and pulled out the LDAP
bits. I made sure @simonellistonball is on the first commit to maintain
attribution. When we merge this, we'll need to make sure that's properly
maintained.
What this does is setup the set of LDAP configs, while maintaining
backwards compatibility with the JDBC stuff by default.
I'd say the main objection I'd expect would be around unit/integration
testing. Right now there's not anything in this PR, although we could probably
pull in the EmbeddedLDAP from the branch and make sure the role endpoint works
with it for integration.
I have run this up on full dev and tested against an actual OpenLDAP
instance using
https://github.com/osixia/docker-openldap#use-auto-generated-certificate.
Instructions will be provided in comment to duplicate this testing.
