[Stefan Bäcker <1496690@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This patch has an implementation of paged results for the user
synchronisation via ldap. Also catching errors when hitting a size limit
that is not taken care of in the current implementation. Patch is
against 22.04.2, but also works in 22.04.3 and should be good for 22.10
also, but untested.

** Patch added: "ldap.patch"

Title:
  Support for paginated LDAP requests

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As described here:
  https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=7351&offset=0&limit=10

  The Mahara LDAP auth plugin (which was originally written for PHP 5.3)
  doesn't do paginated LDAP requests. This causes problems with
  ActiveDirectory, which will only return 1000 results at a time.

  PHP 5.4 added support for paginated LDAP. We should update the auth
  plugin to use this functionality. In order to still work in 5.3, we
  should use a function_exists() call to check for the existence of the
  paginated LDAP methods and only use them if they're available.
