Research direction
Start with the SimpleSAMLphp LDAP documentation and PHP's ldap_set_option reference linked in the issue. Determine how client certificates and keys should be configured alongside username/password authentication, including the supported PHP versions. Done means LDAP authentication can use the certificate-based flow without removing the existing credential-based flow.

Description
Google announced their LDAP service: https://support.google.com/cloudidentity/answer/9089736 and we wanted to see if we could get it working for our users.
However, it requires a client certificate to authenticate to the server, which SimpleSAMLphp doesn't support: https://simplesamlphp.org/docs/stable/ldap:ldap . It seems to only support username/password for client authentication.
It would be nice to be able to support client cert/key for authentication in addition to username/password. OpenLDAP supports it using TLS_CERT and TLS_KEY.
It seems that support for this may have only come into PHP in version 7.1: http://php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-set-option.php
