This metric is used to obtain additional metrics exposed by OpenLDAP[1],
specifically `overlays` (`cn=Overlays,cn=Monitor`) & `backends`
(`cn=Backends,cn=Monitor`).
This means that Prometheus now provides information about which overlays
are enabled (or disabled) in OpenLDAP and which backends (with which
config) are active.
Example output (shortened):
```
openldap_monitored_object_with_runtime_config{dn="cn=Backend 0,cn=Backends,cn=Monitor",info="config"} 1
openldap_monitored_object_with_runtime_config{dn="cn=Overlay 0,cn=Overlays,cn=Monitor",info="glue"} 0
openldap_monitored_object_with_runtime_config{dn="cn=Overlay 1,cn=Overlays,cn=Monitor",info="valsort"} 1
```

Hi, thanks for the PR. I'm confused a little though. How is this a metric rather than an attempt to use prometheus for logging? Metrics change regularly over time, this one will not. Graphing it out will not really be all that useful IMO. |

@tomcz how would you retrieve this via logging? Anyways yes, I'm using this for additional info on my LDAP dashboard (i.e. to give an overview over enabled overlays & backends), so technically it's not a (changing) metric. |
