Description

As discussed with Rohit

We noticed that a user password can not be changed in the UI if LDAP is configured. However the API allows to change the password.

Steps to reproduce:

• LDAP is configured to be used.
• Try to change password of user john --> Error could not change your password because LDAP is enabled.

As an improvement the following message should be shown before we allow to change the password, e.g.:

Note: You will change the local user password and this may not have any affect for authentification if the user exists in LDAP or SAML. Are you sure you want to change the password?
