RE: A new encode loop in send_search_entry() (ITS#2433)

[hyc@highlandsun.com]

The new loop needs to honor the matchedValuesReturn control.

There is a disconnect here between the encoding of the requested attribute
name and the check for attribute subtypes. The loop may encode the values of
the wrong attribute for a specified name.
