#2588 Properly handle AD's binary objectGUID
Closed: Fixed Opened by sbose.

The Active Directory objectGUID LDAP attribute is returned as a binary value which is currently not handled well be SSSD. There is a string representation defined in [MS-DTYP] section 2.3.4.3 which should be used to store the attribute to the cache. Only the surrounding curly braces should be dropped because they cannot be used for LDAP searches.
