Handle LDAP operations asynchronously using nginx event architecture
A connection is opened using nginx framework and then fed to OpenLDAP using ldap_init_fd() call with custom SockBuf IO handlers. When some credentials need to be validated, ngx_http_auth_ldap_authenticate() is called multiple times, returning NGX_AGAIN each time the process is waiting for the LDAP server to reply. (Note: This only an initial implementation and as such, it is of course very buggy and limited. Further work is needed to make it useful.)
