Inconsistent manual-pages (True, False, None) #7953

Hey there again!

I noticed, the man-pages sssd.conf and sssd-ldap are inconsistent in the capitalization of some values:

  • True, true, TRUE
  • False, false, FALSE
  • None, none

In SSSDConfig, some cases are treated equally, but not all:

self.bool_lookup = {
'false' : False,
'true' : True,
}

Similarly, sometimes its called ad or AD

This inconsistency is confusing and reduces confidence whether SSSD actually recognizes the configuration and does the intended thing.

I am using RHEL 9.5 with SSSD version 2.9.5, release 4.el9. If this is a duplicate, please ignore this.
