[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH 31/31] Ticket 1485 - DN pairwise grouping

[John Dennis]

The pairwise grouping used to form RDN's and AVA's proved to be
confusing in practice, this patch removes that functionality thus
requiring programmers to explicitly pair attr,value using a tuple or
list.

In addition it was discovered additional functionality was needed to
support some DN operations in freeipa. DN objects now support
startswith(), endswith() and the "in" membership test. These functions
and operators will accept either a DN or RDN.

The unittest was modified to remove the pairwise tests and add new
explicit tests. The unittest was augmented to test the new
functionality. In addition the unittest was cleaned up a bit to use
common utilty functions for improved readabilty and robustness.

The documentation was updated.
