Description

I can't configure any LDAP backend on Nextcloud 20.0.2:

sudo -u www-data /usr/bin/php occ ldap_contacts:add --interactive $TEST
Address book display name: TEST
An unhandled exception has been thrown:
TypeError: Argument 3 passed to OCA\LDAPContactsBackend\Service\ConnectionImporter::extractTlsMode() must be of the type string, int given, called in /var/www/html/apps/ldap_contacts_backend/lib/Service/ConnectionImporter.php on line 71 and defined in /var/www/html/apps/ldap_contacts_backend/lib/Service/ConnectionImporter.php:84

Research direction

Start with lib/Service/ConnectionImporter.php, especially extractTlsMode() and its caller around line 71, then reproduce the failure with occ ldap_contacts:add --interactive. Done means the command can configure an LDAP backend without the reported TypeError and the TLS mode is handled correctly.
