Hi,

It's possible to set the flag LDAP_AVA_FREE_VALUE to clear ber values on the
LDAPAVA structure in ldapava_free() but it's not possible to set the
LDAP_AVA_FREE_ATTR to clear attributes. I suspect OpenLDAP internals does not
need to free attributes in this way (hence the missing code).

I'm building a custom LDAPAVA (LDAPDN) object and it would be useful to be able
to set this flags to have it properly clean up both values and attributes in
ldap_dnfree().
