Summary: LDAPI: referral mode needs LDAPI socket?
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=230673
This changes make LDAPI turned "off" if ldapifilepath is not set in the
install inf file.
Sorry, I should have done the discussion on bugzilla from the
beginning. It's going to be a repeat, but for the record, if you could
review the changes and comment on the bug, I'd appreciate it.

I don't think we should create the directory if it does not exist. That
doesn't seem right to me. I think we should just warn.

Then ds_newinst could set it to "on" if the user specified an
ldapifilepath. I think that would appease Andrew as well.
Based upon the suggestions from Pete and Rich, if setting
"ldapifilepath=/path/to/ldapifile/slapd-ID.socket" in the install inf
file is used as a trigger to set ldapi to "on". Otherwise, set to
"off".
The function ds_gen_confs in create_instance.c switches between on and
off depending upon the existence of ldapifilepath value. Also, the ldapi
default setting in libglobs.c is changed to "off".
