Allowing LDAP groups to be configure as Approvers for merge requests.
Description
When using Gitlab in an enterprise environment with may developers there is a need to restrict who can approve merge requests as well as minimizing administration of Gitlab it self. A solution to this would be to allow LDAP groups to be used as merge request approvers. This will have the benefit of a one time configuration of the gitlab project(s) and any further administration is done in LDAP where users can be added/removed from the merge requests approvers role.
Use cases
Users with many projects and many developers that need ease of use and low administration overhead.
