Subject: [PATCH] Update AuthenticablePrincipal.xml

I was looking up a principal in AD where the calling context had been denied to read any attribute. The Enabled property returned false, which I found a bit confusing... To reflect the permissions effect on the value when using active directory, I updated the documentation.
