Create a NOLOGIN role "ldapusers" in PostgreSQL and assign the users to authenticate
with LDAP to that group.
Then use two lines in pg_hba.conf:
host all +ldapusers 0.0.0.0/0 ldap ...
host all all 0.0.0.0/0 scram-sha-256
All users in the "ldapusers" group will be authenticated with LDAP,
and the others will "fall through" to the password authentication.
Yours,
