Resolves: Bug 479753
Description: Update core schema to latest defined in LDAP RFCs
Fix Description: This patch updates and reorganizes our core schema to
   follow the most recently defined standards.  The layout of the core
   schema files is as follows:

   00core.ldif - RFC 4512, RFC 4519, LDAP Subentry Internet Draft
   01core389.ldif - 389 specific schema (required to start server)
   02common.ldif - 389 specific schema (highly recommended,
       Changelog Internet Draft, plug-in schema)
   05rfc2927.ldif - MIME Directory Profile for LDAP Schema
   05rfc4523.ldif - Schema Definitions for X.509 Certificates
   05rfc4524.ldif - Cosine LDAP/X.500 Schema
   06inetorgperson.ldif - RFC 2798 (pulls in RFC 2079 and part of
       the obsolete RFC 1274 due to required attributes)

   There are still a handful of syntaxes that we don't support, so
   I've substituted syntaxes for about 15 attributes.  The schema and
   DIT related description syntaxes are not supported, so I've used
   the "Directory String" syntax instead in 00core.ldif.  The
   certificate syntaxes defined in 4523 are not supported, so I've
   used the "Octet String" syntax instead.  All of these deviations
   are commented with a "TODO" listing the syntax that we need to
   implement.

   I have also updated the Mozilla address book schema to the latest
   from upstream for a minor bug fix.  I changed the nsSymmetricKey
   attribute to use the "Octet String" syntax since the "Binary"
   syntax is deprecated.

Platforms tested: F9 x86_64, F11 x86_64
