[pmg-devel] [PATCH V2 pmg-docs] fix #3645: Improve LDAP docs

[Dylan Whyte]

- Be clearer about the fact that LDAP is only for spam quarantine
  access.
- Specify spam quarantine url and that users must log in with their
  email.

Signed-off-by: Dylan Whyte <d.whyte at proxmox.com>

V1 -> V2:
- State that users should access the quarantine via the configured url
  and mention that '<pmg-host>:8006/quarantine' is the default
  (thanks for the note @stoiko)
- Reduce wordiness: s/Users can get access to/Users can access/

 Creating a profile requires (at least) the following:
 
-* profile name
-* protocol (LDAP or LDAPS; LDAPS is recommended)
-* at least one server
-* a username and password (if your server does not support anonymous binds)
+* `Profile Name`:  The name assigned to the LDAP profile.

 All other fields should work with the defaults for most setups, but can be
