ldap_search: Client Certificate Support

[andrewshulgin]

Summary

I am trying to get LDAP users from Google LDAP, but it requires client certificates. Due to lack of client certificate support, it's required to run stunnel as a middleware between Ansible and Google LDAP servers. It would be great to implement client certificate support to support direct connection to LDAP servers which require client certifiactes.

Implemented this in a custom module: https://github.com/andrewshulgin/ldap_search

Why not contribute this feature to this collection, instead of creating a new collection for the forked module?

[andrewshulgin]

Will certainly do it as soon as I have time to write some tests.
