Subject: [PATCH 79/80] LDAP: Only authenticate the auth connection if we need

 to look up user information

Related:

https://pagure.io/SSSD/sssd/issue/3451

Commit add72860c7a7a2c418f4d8b6790b5caeaf7dfb7b initially addressed #3451 by

using the full sdap_cli_connect() request during LDAP authentication. This

was a good idea as it addressed the case where the authentication connection

must also look up some user information (typically with id_provider=proxy

where you don't know the DN to bind as during authentication), but this

approach also broke the use-case of id_provider=ldap and auth_provider=ldap

with ldap_sasl_auth=gssapi.

This is because (for reason I don't know) AD doesn't like if you use

both GSSAPI and startTLS on the same connection. But the code would

force TLS during the authentication as a general measure to not transmit

passwords in the clear, but then, the connection would also see that

ldap_sasl_auth=gssapi is set and also bind with GSSAPI.

This patch checks if the user DN is already known and if yes, then

doesn't authenticate the connection as the connection will then only be

used for the user simple bind.
