This patch does two things:

1. Prompts when deleting a master to make clear that this is irreversible
2. Does not allow a deleted master to be reconnected.

Reconnecting to a deleted master causes all heck to break loose because we delete principals as part of deletion process. If you reconnect to a deleted master then we replicate those deletes and the connected master is now unusable (no principals).

A simple test is:

Install master
Install replica
ipa-replica-manage del replica
ipa-replica-manage connect replica
ipa-server-uninstall -U on replica
re-install replica

The re-install should be successful.

Subject: [PATCH] Warn that deleting replica is irreversible, try to detect
 reconnection.

Using ipa-replica-manage del <replica> is irreversible. You can't
turn around and do a connect to it, all heck will break loose. This is
because we clean up all references to the replica when we delete so if
we connect to it again we'll end up deleting all of its principals.

When a connection is deleted then the agreement is removed on both sides.
What isn't removed is the nsDS5ReplicaBindDN so we can use that to
determine if we previously had a connection.
