Rob Crittenden 8365d5e734 Unify installer context to be 'installer'
'install' was being used in some places.

The context can be used to limit what configuration is
used for a given request so having consistency is
valuable.

This affected the force_schema_updates value in LDAPClient
which looks for api.env.context in ('installer', 'updates')

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.
