    LDAP Support for nested groups and groups from different nodes/folders

    We use Tuleap with the LDAP plugin and ActiveDirectory. We have groups in different "OUs"/Nodes and we have nested groups. This is currently not supported by the LDAP Plugin - also the current method to distinguish between person and groups is only working because of the current restrictions. 

    To solve this only small changes to LDAP_GroupManager.class.php and to LDAP.class.php are neccessary.

    May I create a pullrequest?

    As noticied by @tgerbet switching to subtree by default for group search might represent an issue on large servers (with dozen of thousands of groups). So revert back to scope 'one' by default with the ability to make it configurable with gerrit #10398.
