index attr :matchingRule

Can be used with the extended filter (attr:matchingRule:=foo), or with e.g. (attr=foo) when matchingRule is the EQUALITY rule.

That's a good idea but would require more work to define indexer functions for each matching rule before we could do anything further. My reason for posting this ITS is that we already have the index available for the DN relativeMatch rules, so we should be taking advantage of them.
