/**
 * This class implements the LDAP request control for proxied authorization.
 * This control is used to request that the accompanying operation be
 * performed using the supplied authorization identity, overriding any
 * existing authorization identity.
 * The control may be included in any LDAP operation except in those that
 * cause change in authentication, authorization or data confidentiality, such
 * as bind and startTLS.
 * 
 * The Proxied Authorization control is defined in draft-weltman-ldapv3-proxy-12.
 * 

 * The object identifier for the Proxied Authorization control is 2.16.840.1.113730.3.4.18
 *  and the control value is the authorization identity to be used. The control
 * value is empty if anonymous identity is to be used. The control's value has
 * the following ASN.1 definition:
 * 

 * 
 *
 *     ProxiedAuth ::= LDAPString ; containing an authzId as defined in RFC 2829
 *                                ; or an empty value
 *
 *     authzId    = dnAuthzId / uAuthzId
 *
 *     ; distinguished-name-based authz id.
 *     dnAuthzId  = "dn:" dn
 *     dn         = utf8string    ; with syntax defined in RFC 2253
 *
 *     ; unspecified userid, UTF-8 encoded.
 *     uAuthzId   = "u:" userid
 *     userid     = utf8string    ; syntax unspecified
 *
 * 
 * 
 * The following code sample shows how the control may be used:
 * 
 *
 *     // create an initial context using the supplied environment properties
 *     LdapContext ctx = new InitialLdapContext(env, null);
 *
 *     // examine the authorization identity and set the appropriate prefix
 *     String authzId = isDN(authzId) ? "dn:" + authzId : "u:" + authzId;
 *
 *     // activate the control
 *     ctx.setRequestControls(new Control[] {
 *         new ProxiedAuthorizationControl(authzId)
 *     };
 *
 *     // perform an operation using the authorization identity
 *     ctx.getAttributes("");
 *
 *
