Tree Delete Control

CA Directory supports the Tree Delete LDAP control, as described in Tree Delete Control IETF draft.

Without this control, an LDAP directory cannot delete an entire subtree; only a leaf entry may be deleted. In a situation where CA Directory needs to delete many entries, this LDAP limitation can cause problems.
