When the LDAP response is parsed, the message length is not properly
decoded. While it works for LDAP servers encoding it on 1 byte, it does not
work for those using a multi-bytes encoding. Among others, Active Directory
servers seems to encode messages or elements length on 4 bytes.
In this patch, we only handle length of BindResponse messages encoded on 1,
2 or 4 bytes. In theory, it may be encoded on any bytes number less than 127
bytes. But it is useless to make this part too complex. It should be ok this
way.
This patch should fix the issue #1390. It should be backported to all stable
versions. While it should be easy to backport it as far as 2.2, the patch
will have to be totally rewritten for lower versions.
Its sole remaining purpose was to display "proxy foo started", which
has little benefit and pollutes output for those with plenty of proxies.
Let's remove it now.
The VTCs were updated to reflect this, because many of them had explicit
counts of dropped lines to match this message.
This is tagged as MEDIUM because some users may be surprized by the
loss of this quite old message.
