openldap: create ldap URLs correctly for IPv6 addresses

Reported-by: Sergio Durigan Junior
Fixes #13228
Closes #13235

More context:

When the user specified an IPv6 address to be used as an LDAP server,
curl will fail to properly enclose it in square brackets, which causes
the connection to fail because the host address cannot be
distinguished from the port:

$ curl -v ldap://[fd42:be5:e632:a6b3:216:3eff:feb1:5bc4]:389
...
* LDAP local: Cannot connect to ldap://fd42:be5:e632:a6b3:216:3eff:feb1:5bc4:389, Bad parameter to an ldap routine
...

Fix this by always enclosing the IPv6 address in square brackets.
