Resolve #11042

[nhemingway]

Convert group names to numbers when creating users with the ldap provider.

If we don't do this, then 389 balks with a "Invalid Syntax" error.

@nhemingway This looks like a good start. I can't merge this as is though mainly do to housekeeping concerns.

The two merge commits included in this change set should not be merged into the mainline, and they will as the change set currently stand.

Could you rebase this topic branch against the upstream topic branch? The following commands should help do this:

git branch fix/master/11042_ldap_provider_group_names master
git fetch origin
git checkout master
git reset --hard origin/master
git checkout fix/master/11042_ldap_provider_group_names
git rebase origin/master

Once you've done this, please submit a new pull request from your fix/master/11042_ldap_provider_group_names topic branch instead of your master branch. This will help us keep the history nice and clean.
