Summary	0024044: Getting user name and email from LDAP without LDAP authentication
Description	It'll be nice to allow getting a user real name and email from LDAP without actual LDAP authentication i.e. when authentication set to HTTP_AUTH or anything else. In that case options $g_use_ldap_realname and $g_use_ldap_email set to 'ON' but $g_login_method is not a 'LDAP'.

Tags	No tags attached.

I would like to point out that LDAP authentication and using LDAP as a user database are quite different things. But everywhere in the MantisBT code these concepts are unreasonably mixed together. This is especially important for authentication via Active Directory. In this case, it is convenient to verify users using the web server itself (Apache or IIS), and take user data (mail, name, avatar, etc.) directly from Active Directory via the LDAP interface.

This PR will complement my new plugin nicely when used with AD: https://github.com/raspopov/MantisExtAuth
