Convert ASCII-8BIT LDAP DNs to UTF-8 to avoid unnecessary user deletions

Issue #1159 exposed a bug where LDAP DNs would be loaded in ASCII-8BIT encoding
but compared against UTF-8-encoded values. This comparison would always
fail, causing the LDAP group sync to evict users with Unicode characters.
The problem was quietly masked because the user would be re-added later
in the group sync worker.

This commit forces the UTF-8 encoding and falls back to the original value
if that fails.

The net-ldap library has an outstanding issue
(https://github.com/ruby-ldap/ruby-net-ldap/issues/4) to load data in UTF-8
format instead of ASCII-8BIT. Per
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4514#section-3, LDAP DNs should be in UTF-8.

Merge branch 'ee-1159-allow-permission-check-bypass-in-approve-access-request-service-ee' into 'master'

Don't pass a current user to Member#add_user in LDAP group sync

See the individual commits for explanation of the changes.

This is part of the fix for gitlab-org/gitlab-ee#1159.

CE backport for the change in `Members::ApproveAccessRequestService` is at gitlab-org/gitlab-ce!7168.

This is because group owners have their `:admin_group_member` permission
removed when the group is LDAP synced, thus ending in an early return
at `return member unless can_update_member?(current_user, member)` in
`Member.add_user`, leading to new LDAP users not being created.

This make this change while still being able to approve access requests
during a LDAP sync, `Members::ApproveAccessRequestService` has been
changed (in CE) to accept a `:force` option that bypass permission check
(since the permission is removed for owners of LDAP-synced groups).
This option is thus set to `ldap` in `Member.add_user`.

This param allows to bypass permission check. It is useful for LDAP-sync
where even owners don't have the :admin_group_member permission.

We have separate methods to delete redundant CE/EE access levels. So,
either `delete_redundant_access_levels` or
`delete_redundant_ee_access_levels` needs to be called, not both (as was
the case here).

Lines were duplicated.
