slapd does only print the error and not the line number.
Sometimes it is not even clear that it fails to start
due to an incorrect configuration file.
Example output of slaptest:

slaptest: bad configuration file!
In commit d43dc68db3, @Mic92 split the
rootpw option to allow specifying it in a file kept outside the Nix
store, as an alternative to specifying the password directly in the
config.
Prior to that, rootpw's type was `str`, but in order to allow both
alternatives, it had to become `nullOr str` with a default of `null`. So
I can see why this assertion, that either rootpw or rootpwFile are
specified, makes sense to add here.
However, these options aren't used if the configDir option is set, so as
written this assertion breaks valid configurations, including the
configuration used by nixos/tests/ldap.nix.
So this patch fixes the assertion so that it doesn't fire if configDir
is set.
- add missing types in module definitions
- add missing 'defaultText' in module definitions
- wrap example with 'literalExample' where necessary in module definitions
Using pkgs.lib on the spine of module evaluation is problematic
because the pkgs argument depends on the result of module
evaluation. To prevent an infinite recursion, pkgs and some of the
modules are evaluated twice, which is inefficient. Using ‘with lib’
prevents this problem.
