Subject: [PATCH 72/78] Ticket 571 (dup 47361) - Empty control list causes LDAP
 protocol error is thrown

Bug Description:

	If a request contains a list of controls containing zero control, it does
	not conform RFC http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4511#section-4.1.11. Then the
	server returns a Protocol Error.
	This is too restrictive for some applications.
	Note: such application needs to be linked with old version of mozldap or openldap
	because recent version skip sending empty list of controls

Fix Description:
	The fix is to ignore this error and let the operation complete

	Note: ticket 571 (bz 918717) is a duplicate of 47361 (bz 963234). 47361 was used to
	backport in 1.2.11. 571 is used to backport in 1.3.1.
	This bug is fixed since 1.3.2
