/**
 * <code>LdapName</code> implements compound names for LDAP v3 as
 * specified by RFC 2253.
 *<p>
 * RFC 2253 has a few ambiguities and outright inconsistencies.  These
 * are resolved as follows:
 * <ul>
 * <li> RFC 2253 leaves the term "whitespace" undefined.  The
 *      definition of "optional-space" given in RFC 1779 is used in
 *      its place:  either a space character or a carriage return ("\r").
 * <li> Whitespace is allowed on either side of ',', ';', '=', and '+'.
 *      Such whitespace is accepted but not generated by this code,
 *      and is ignored when comparing names.
 * <li> AttributeValue strings containing '=' or non-leading '#'
 *      characters (unescaped) are accepted.
 * </ul>
 *<p>
 * String names passed to <code>LdapName</code> or returned by it
 * use the full 16-bit Unicode character set.  They may also contain
 * characters encoded into UTF-8 with each octet represented by a
 * three-character substring such as "\\B4".
 * They may not, however, contain characters encoded into UTF-8 with
 * each octet represented by a single character in the string:  the
 * meaning would be ambiguous.
 *<p>
 * <code>LdapName</code> will properly parse all valid names, but
 * does not attempt to detect all possible violations when parsing
 * invalid names.  It's "generous".
 *<p>
 * When names are tested for equality, attribute types and binary
 * values are case-insensitive, and string values are by default
 * case-insensitive.
 * String values with different but equivalent usage of quoting,
 * escaping, or UTF8-hex-encoding are considered equal.  The order of
 * components in multi-valued RDNs (such as "ou=Sales+cn=Bob") is not
 * significant.
