Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/lldap/lldap/issues/717

It was recently requested that some users may have an interest in running LLDAP as their primary data source, while then synchronising the user data to other IDM's for their features. The listed example for this was Kanidm.

To achieve this, from the LLDAP side the following changes would be required.

Implementation of rfc4533 content sync
- This would rely upon a "last modified time stamp" on each entry so that changed entries can be identified.
Exposing details about the OPAQUE storage mechanism (optional, and may not be needed)
