Subject: [PATCH] Document --preserve-sssd option of ipa-client-install
Add documentation about --preserve-sssd, an ipa-client-install's option to
honor previously available SSSD configuration in case it is not possible to
merge it cleanly with the new one. In this case ipa-client-install will fail
and ask user to fix SSSD config before continuing.
