Patch massaging the SASL binding requirement docs

While some ACL requirements for SASL binding are documented, some are not. 
E.g, that olcAuthzRegexp requires =x on objectClass when direct DN mapping is
not documented.  Other requirements can be reasoned out based on the existing
documentation, but this can be very difficult when unfamiliar with all the
moving parts and the places they are documented.  E.g. knowing that
(objectClass=*) is the default filter, and that there's _always_ _some_ filter,
and connecting this with ACLs required to do search-based SASL mapping.

The attached patch brings all the SASL binding requirements together in one
place in the docs and makes everything explicit.  The word "SASL" is included,
for those searching for that keyword.
