Re: (ITS#4314) C API for paged results

[Kurt@OpenLDAP.org]

I would like to this be reworked using ppolicy API as a basis than
the older sort/vlv control APIs (which should also be reworked).
Parse routines shouldn't also find the control as this makes it
harder to use in programs that include their own finding.
