=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module handles X.500 RDNs (Relative Distinguished Names).
This is a supporting module for X500::DN.
=head2 Methods
=over 4
=item * $object = new X500::RDN ('type'=>'value', 'type'=>'value', ...);
Creates an RDN object from argument pairs, each pair an attribute type and value.
With more than one pair as arguments, you will get a multi-valued RDN.
=item * $object->isMultivalued();
Returns whether the RDN is multi-valued.
=item * $object->getAttributeTypes();
Returns the RDN's attribute types, a list of strings.
=item * $object->getAttributeValue (type);
Returns the RDN attribute's value.
=item * $object->getRFC2253String();
Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to RFC 2253 syntax.
=item * $object->getX500String();
Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to X.500 syntax.
NOTE: This is a hack, there is no definition for a X.500 string syntax!?
=item * $object->getOpenSSLString();
Returns the RDN as a string formatted according to one of openssl's syntaxes.
Croaks on multi-valued RDNs.
