YAML support, Directory Support and compound syntax

[ntrp]

Hi, as part of a project we implemented support for YAML format and multi-file support. The YAML support allows to write a more human readable permission config:

users:
  C=DE,O=org,OU=WEB,CN=t1.example.com,L=Stuttgart,ST=reg:
    topics:
      Topic1:
       - Read
      TopicPref_*:
        - All
    groups:
      team1-app1-*:
        - Read
        - Describe

In the YAML example you can also see the compound syntax where you define All to give all permissions on a topic.

The multi-file support allows to organize the permissions in different files to make separation of concerns more easy.

The implementation was done around version 0.5 so I would need to invest some time to create a valid pull request, are you interested in merging this kind of features? Otherwise I will spare the time ^^'

Absolutely! Thanks so much for the amazing contribution, I'm so happy I don't think it'll be too hard to adapt the code Looking forward to the PR

Ok then I will try to see first how much effort is to try merging back our fork and then decide if it makes more sense just to re-implement the changes. Can't promise on the timing though since I don't have that much currently, hopefully in the next two weeks..

Take your time :)
