Current objectclass updates in a form of "replace" update instruction
dependent on exact match of the old object class specification in the
update instruction and the real value in LDAP. However, this approach is
very error prone as object class definition can easily differ as for
example because of unexpected X-ORIGIN value. Such objectclass update
failures may lead to serious malfunctions later.
When comparing the objectclasses, make sure we normalize them both
before we compare them to mitigate these kinds of errors. python-ldap's
objectclass model can be utilized to do the normalization part.
One objectclass update instruction was changed to do a replace of
an objectclass separately from add update instruction so that we
really only replace what's stored in LDAP.

IPA implements read/write permissions for DNS record or zones.
Provided set of permissions and privileges can, however, only grant
access to the whole DNS tree, which may not be appropriate.
Administrators may miss more fine-grained permissions allowing
them to delegate access per-zone.
Create a new IPA auxiliary objectclass ipaDNSZone allowing
a managedBy attribute for a DNS zone. This attribute will hold
a group DN (in this case a permission) which allows its members
to read or write in a zone. Member permissions in given zone
will only have 2 limitations:
1) Members cannot delete the zone
2) Members cannot edit managedBy attribute
Current DNS deny ACI used to enforce read access is removed so that
DNS privileges are based on allow ACIs only, which is much more
flexible approach as deny ACIs have always precedence and limit
other extensions. Per-zone access is allowed in 3 generic ACIs
placed in cn=dns,$SUFFIX so that no special ACIs has to be added
to DNS zones itselves.
2 new commands have been added which allows an administrator to
create the system permission allowing the per-zone access and
fill a zone's managedBy attribute:
* dnszone-add-permission: Add per-zone permission
* dnszone-remove-permission: Remove per-zone permission
