[keycloak-dev] LDAP integration

[Bill Burke]

Don't we need to have LDAP as a user store?  Won't companies have a user 
LDAP store they want to point Keycloak to?  If you have an Auth SPI 
only, then you'll still need to register the users with Keycloak.

This will support one-way and two-way of syncing data from an external resource into the Keycloak model. It will support resource that allows registering listeners for events (for near real-time syncing) as well as interval based pulling when this is not possible.
