[python-ldap] syncrepl fix for pyasn1 >= 0.3

[Karl Kornel]

Hi Ilya, good afternoon!

I did once submit a patch to add some tests for syncrepl parts of python-ldap, as well as a modification to the test framework, so that syncrepl support would be active in the slapd used for testing.

The post and attachments can be found here: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ldap/2017q2/003923.html

It has been some time since the submission, so I can not say right now if the patches would still work.

But, one good thing is that I have access to a big LDAP directory! 8-)  So I will test now the latest code from you, and the latest code from Michael, and I will let you know my results!

    Hi Michael,
    
    I think pyasn1 0.4.1 is mostly ready to be released. I have been trying to run relevant Python-LDAP tests with pyasn1 master [1] to make sure there are no regressions. Tests pass but I am not convinced they actually run through the pyasn1 code at all.
    
    So I wonder if you have a proper test bench handy to give it a quick try?  Or teach me how to run them locally.
    
    Thanks!  ;-)
