And "core lastbind" means the "lastbind" module?

Starting with 2.5 there are two "lastbind" implementations: - the old contrib/ overlay - OpenLDAP's own (what I mean by "core") implementation that doesn't require an overlay

From a user's perspective it's hard to tell why the "lastbind" module would be "core" while "policy" module would not (if I undertood it correctly). Is it due to the progress of standardization?

No it is just to make it possible to implement the latest ppolicy drafts. AFAIR the contrib/ overlay was incapable of this.
