lookups and group members

   @dtmo I just posted my PR [1] which introduces a new flag that allows the 
user to configure whether NiFi should use case sensitivity when making group 
membership decisions. I want to retain the current approach with regards to how 
often the directory server would be queried so I left the basic structure 
intact and just ensured that membership decisions considered case 
conditionally. 
   
   I was not aware that we could consider querying the directory server for 
which matching rules were enabled. Is this something that we could reliably 
depend on? I'm tempted to leave the configuration on the NiFi side for cases 
when a directory server implements something slightly differently from another 
implementation.
