ldap: Fallback option for rfc2307 schema
Add option to fallback to fetch local users if rfc2307is being used. This is useful for cases where people added local users as LDAP members and rely on these group memberships to be maintained on the local host. Disabled by default as it violates identity domain separation. Ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1020

+ Allows to retain local users as members of an LDAP

+ </para>
+ <para>
+ In some environments where the RFC2307 schema is
+ used, local users are made members of LDAP groups
+ by adding their names to the memberUid attribute.
+ The self-consistency of the domain is compromised
+ when this is done, so SSSD would normally remove
+ the "missing" users from the cached group
+ memberships as soon as nsswitch tries to fetch
+ information about the user via getpw*() or
+ initgroups() calls.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This option falls back to checking if local users
+ are referenced, and caches them so that later
+ initgroups() calls will augment the local users
+ with the additional LDAP groups.
