The patch is attached. I got everybody that touched the patch in the
LibreOffice git repo to agree to the PostgreSQL license for the patch.

The changes to tools/msvc are untested since I don't personally have a
Microsoft Windows build environment and LibreOffice uses
src/interfaces/lipq/win32.mak to build libpq.

The patch introduces a preprocessor macro USE_MICROSOFT_LDAP to enable
the Microsoft LDAP part to replace the previously used "#ifdef WIN32",
since one can also use Mozilla LDAP on MS Windows. I found that
cleaner than putting everywhere "#if defined(WIN32) && ! defined(USE_MOZLDAP)".

Except for that, the only change is to the config/build system proper,
to recognise and use the Mozilla LDAP library.
