New authentication system

A new service has been added to improve login process and user account management. Previously, users needed to be provisioned by the administrator or exist in a third party authentication system. Now, users can sign-up by using a simple web interface, and also change and recover their password via a web interface.

On the other side, login templates can be customized for each of the login sections (new user, lost password, change password), additional security policies can be implemented (ex: forbid a user login after several invalid login attempts) and the integration of new authentication oAuth providers is now much easier.
