dont_log_unavailable_controls_at_loglevel_none.quilt

After updating to UCS 4.3 latest errata a customer found his syslog growing faster than usual, filling with messages like

Aug 22 19:40:01 ucsserver slapd[19596]: slap_global_control: unrecognized control: 1.3.6.1.4.1.4203.666.5.16

Aug 22 19:40:38 ucsserver slapd[19596]: slap_global_control: unrecognized control: 1.3.6.1.4.1.42.2.27.8.5.1

This is a side effect of the adjusted ldap/debug/level (Bug #47196).

The attached patch should fix this.

This is non-critical, there is just an LDAP client trying to use the dref and ppolicy controls and the server doesn't have the corresponding overlays loaded.
