[sork] Refactoring the Forwards LDAP driver

[Eric Jon Rostetter]

Quoting Jan Schneider <jan at horde.org>:

All true.

Sounds reasonable...

For forwards/vacations yes, but passwd is another issue still...
(And Accounts is not of concern, since it is a Block in modern Horde...)

I guess my concern would be _when_ ingo might get full (or near full)
forwards/vacation functionality so we can depreciate them...  If soon,
then no problem.  If later, than maybe we should work on sork still.
