SASL_MECH is documented as "This is a user-only option" in man ldap.conf,
https://www.openldap.org/software/man.cgi?query=ldap.conf . User-only options
are documented as "Such options are ignored if present in the ldap.conf".
Contrary to the documentation, libldap loads SASL_MECH from global ldap.conf. We
discussed the issue in
https://github.com/freeipa/freeipa/pull/1470#issuecomment-372602434 

Is this a documentation bug or an implementation bug?
