For Cmnd_Alias I'm not sure if it is supported or documented. IPA just
uses the standard sudo LDAP schema so you could start with the
sudoers.ldap man page I guess. I don't recall a specific option in IPA
sudocmd to do that though, but I've been out of the game for a while.

I'm 99% sure there is no sudoers -> IPA conversion script. It's
certainly a nice-to-have but it'd probably be death by a thousand cuts
to try to implement such a thing and be useful for more than 80% of users.
