Summary: LDAPI: referral mode needs LDAPI socket?

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230673

This changes make LDAPI turned "off" if ldapifilepath is not set in the 
install inf file.

Sorry, I should have done the discussion on bugzilla from the 
beginning.  It's going to be a repeat, but for the record, if you could 
review the changes and comment on the bug, I'd appreciate it.

I don't think we should create the directory if it does not exist. That 
doesn't seem right to me. I think we should just warn.

Then ds_newinst could set it to "on" if the user specified an 
ldapifilepath. I think that would appease Andrew as well.

Based upon the suggestions from Pete and Rich, if setting 
"ldapifilepath=/path/to/ldapifile/slapd-ID.socket" in the install inf 
file is used as a trigger to set ldapi to "on". Otherwise, set to "off". 
The function ds_gen_confs in create_instance.c switches between on and 
off depending upon the existence of ldapifilepath value. Also, the ldapi 
default setting in libglobs.c is changed to "off".
