Tidy up ipa options
Do not replicate every and each option we may want to set in ipa. Just read out ldap and krb provider options (added reference in the manual too, and removed mention of ipa specific timeout values, use ldap options for that) Avoid calling auth module initialization twice, just pass the auth context to the chpass module too. Add a new ldap option SDAP_SEARCH_BASE, so that a single searching base can be used for both users and groups. the user and group search bases can still be set separately if necessary but they are now optional and set to be identical to SDAP_SEARCH_BASE if not explicitly specified in the configuration.
