Hello,

This patch adds support for passing through unbind requests to the underlying module when using the perl backend.

In this patch, the unbind operation is bypassed if requested by the rootdn. You seem to consider "unbind" as the opposite of "bind", while it is a request to shutdown a connection between client and server. As such, it should be honored also when the connection is bound as the rootdn.

Also, unbind operations are not supposed to return any response (see RFC4511 for details; note that no unbind response tag is defined).
