Update MQ LDAP client to be case insensitive to comply with RFC4512

We recently migrated from Oracle Directory Services to OpenLDAP and as part of the migration, the casing changed on some object attributes. This caused IBM MQ to fail and we had to reconfigure MQ with the case corrected LDAP configuration. Per RFC4512, these attributes should be case-insensitive. Please update the LDAP client in MQ to perform case-insensitive LDAP searches.

    This is not a matter of the queries being made to the LDAP server. Those are case-insensitive. Instead, this is where the queue manager's authorisation component checks against the locally-managed AUTHRECs. The responses from LDAP are treated the same as OS userids, which are case-sensitive on most platforms. Changing this behaviour is likely to be risky or introduce incompatible behaviour; it is not something we would expect to change.
