[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] 386 replica management

ipa-replica-manage used to require the DM password for every operation. 
This adds a couple of ACIs so a privileged user can use the 'list' and 
'del' commands. Doing add is possible but tricky since we use the same 
replication password for all replicas (currently the DM password). We'd 
probably want to create a separate user for each replica if this were 
the case and prompt for a password to use.

This also has a problem where it can't distinguish between "there are no 
replication agreements" and "you aren't allowed to see them" because 
queries to cn=config don't return an error if you are not authorized. 
Pavel is in the process of switching to using ldap2 for all LDAP access 
and this module already has Get Effective Rights support. Once the 
switch is done we can improve the logic here.
