Description

Until now configuration is being stored in a single LDIF file, this is leading to
some performance issues especially when used in cases like the one mentioned here.

Now the solution is to split configuration into multiple LDIF files, which will still
allow the users to edit configuration by hand when needed.

This move is backward compatible, in the sense that after upgrading to M20
the existing config.ldif file data will be stored in the new format
and the file will be preserved under the name config.ldif_migrated.
This new file will never be used by the server again.
