> From RFC 4513 section 3.1.5:
>         "The server may advertise different capabilities after installing a
>          TLS layer.  In particular, the value of 'supportedSASLMechanisms' may
>          be different after a TLS layer has been installed (specifically, the
>          EXTERNAL and PLAIN [PLAIN] mechanisms are likely to be listed only
>          after a TLS layer has been installed)."
> So we should only expose the PLAIN or EXTERNAL mechanism as a value in the RootDSE's supportedSASLMechanisms attribute for those clients possessing sessions with TLS confidentiality.
