I worked in this together with Matthieu, first to get it in a state
where I'm happy with. Then we decided to go further and unify
unify the looping to get the schema resolved
in a new function called dsdb_repl_resolve_working_schema().

Matthieu is currently testing the result.

Once the test result is fine I'm happy to push this to master and get it
backported.
