[horde] Mnemo driver

There already exists a Kolab driver for Mnemo. You need to enable  
Kolab storage in the main Horde config, and then choose the Kolab  
driver as storage for Mnemo.

As far as ActiveSync goes, you will likely run into issues with Kolab  
backed data. There is a patch/pull-request that adds full history  
support to kolab backed data, but it's not in the main Horde  
distribution for various reasons. https://github.com/horde/horde/pull/48
