> LDAP - Support configurable user identity

> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement

>
> The current LDAP provider supports a configurable search filter that will
> allow the user specified login name to be matched against any LDAP entry
> attribute. We should offer a configuration option that will indicate if we
> should use the LDAP entry DN or if we should use the login name that was used
> in the search filter. For instance, this would allow an admin to configure a
> user to login with their sAMAccountName and subsequently use that name as
> their user's identity.
> Note: we should default this option to be the user DN in order to ensure
> backwards compatibility.
