While reviewing this branch it was noted that this task was broken.
Given the limited value this task brings, and given the fact that much
of the old behaviour has been moved to be automatically fixed, removing
was a good option.

These tasks are happening through housekeeping right now, by default
ever 10th push. This removes the need for these tasks.
Side note, this removes one of my first contributions to GitLab, as back
than I introduced these tasks through: 54e6c0045b
Closes https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitaly/issues/768
Sometimes admins will change the LDAP configuration, not realizing
that problems will occur if the user's LDAP identities are not
also updated to use the new provider name. This task will give
admins a single command to run to update identities and will
prevent having to run multiple Rails console queries.
It was previously possible for invalid credential errors to go unnoticed
in this task. Users would believe everything was configured correctly and
then sign in would fail with 'invalid credentials'. This adds a specific
bind check, plus catches errors connecting to the server. Also, specs :)
