FW: "ldapsearch uid=ab*" works "ldapsearch cn=a*" doesn't in 2.1.19

["Howard Chu" <hyc@highlandsun.com>]

I think someone needs to take my keyboard away for a while. All those patches
in filterindex.c keep breaking something else.

In this case, the code is now broken for non-indexed attributes. One thing
after another...

Due to a bug in substring indexing that was fixed in 2.1.18 and 2.1.19, the
substring index format changed. You need to run slapindex to regenerate your
substring indexes. Sorry for this, the format change was unavoidable in order
to correct the bug.
