Petr Vobornik 12401fe4da General builder support
Web UI mainly uses declarative way of defining UI structure. When a new object type is created it is often required to create a new builder which would build the objects from spec file. The builders' logic is mostly the same. This patch adds a general builder with some extendability capabilities.

Now it is possible to:
  1) define spec for single object and build it by calling IPA.build(spec, /* optional */ builder_fac)
  2) define an array of specs and build the objects by the same call

Prerequisite for following action list patches.

Ground rules on adding new schema

Brand new schema, particularly when written specifically for IPA, should be
added in share/*.ldif. Any new files need to be explicitly loaded in
ipaserver/install/dsinstance.py. These simply get copied directly into
the new instance schema directory.

Existing schema (e.g. in an LDAP draft) may either be added as a separate
ldif in share or as an update in the updates directory. The advantage of
adding the schema as an update is if 389-ds ever adds the schema then the
installation won't fail due to existing schema failing to load during
bootstrap.

If the new schema requires a new container then this should be added
to install/bootstrap-template.ldif.
