I've only been using ApacheDS about a month so I'm no expert.  However, like you I've noticed
 lots of references to server.xml in the ApacheDS documentation.  I think what has happened is
 server.xml existed in versions of ApacheDS prior to 2.x e.g. 1.5.x and earlier.  T
he file server.xml no longer exists.

Here's Pierre-Arnaud Marcelot and Emmanual Lecharny answering 
the same question back in 2012(!):

Since ApacheDS 2.x, Apache Directory Studio's Configuration plugin
 replaces editing server.xml:

Apache Directory Studio->LDAP Perspective->Connections view
    ->Right-Click a connection->Open configuration right-click menu entry.

On the specific question of an interceptor, I'm guessing that you 
may have to manually create an LDIF file to add an interceptor under...
ou=interceptors,ads-directoryServiceId=default,ou=config
In the Apache Directory Studio->LDAP Browser view I see
 lots of interceptors under that context.
