[midPoint] LDAP Connector Extension

Hi,

Just to clarify: This is not an issue of midPoint or a LDAP connector. 
This is an issue of the connector framework - the ConnId framework with 
is based on Sun Identity Connector Framework (Sun ICF). The ICF does not 
have any concept of auxiliary object classes or any concept of more than 
one object class per object. The Sun engineers obviously haven't though 
about this. Therefore this is not directly possible with the ICF/ConnId. 
But there is an indirect way. You have to configure the LDAP connector 
to "hack in" the auxiliary object classes. One such example can be found 
in our sample for Zimbra provisioning:
https://github.com/Evolveum/midpoint/blob/master/samples/resources/zimbra/ldap-zimbra.xml

However we have plans to extend the ConnId framework and add the concept 
of auxiliary object classes and support them properly. This is currently 
planned for 2015Q1.
