Some LDAP implementations (mainly AD and Outlook) accept and/or output
DNs that are not valid. To support interaction with these invalid DNs a
strictDN flag (default: true) has been added to the client and server
constructors. Setting this flag to false will allow use of
non-conforming DNs.
When disabling strictDN in the ldapjs client, strings which wouldn't
parse into a DN can then be passed to the ldap operation methods. It
also means that some methods (such as search) may return results with
string-formatted DNs instead of DN objects.
When disabling strictDN in the ldapjs server, incoming requests that
contain invalid DNs will be routed to the default ('') handler for that
operation type. It is your responsiblity to differentiate between
string-type and object-type DNs in those handlers.
