[2.9] CVE-2020-1746 - Remove the params module option from ldap_attr and ldap_entry (#68714)
* Remove the params module option from ldap_attr and ldap_entry
Module options that circumvent Ansible's option handling were disallowed
in:
https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/ansible-meeting/2017-09-28/ansible_dev_meeting.2017-09-28-15.00.log.html
Additionally, this particular usage can be insecure if bind_pw is set
this way as the password could end up in a logfile or displayed on
stdout.
Fixes CVE-2020-1746
(cherry picked from commit 0ff609f1bc5e391fa25710b9a0baaf669f347eb1)
* Fix formatting for option names
Co-Authored-By: Felix Fontein <felix@fontein.de>
* Fix fail_json
* fix indentation error
