Patch[0] to add ldif_open_mem() function to ldif API.

ldif_open_mem() is the fmemopen(3) equivalent of ldif_open() which opens
an ldif steam from memory, rather than from a file.

I originally added a similar function to my project libgladdb in 2014[1], but it
really belongs in openldap itself as it is generally useful.
