Document --preserve-sssd option of ipa-client-install
Add documentation about --preserve-sssd, an ipa-client-install's option to honor previously available SSSD configuration in case it is not possible to merge it cleanly with the new one. In this case ipa-client-install will fail and ask user to fix SSSD config before continuing. Additional fix for https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1750 https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/1769
