[midPoint] REST authentication

[Radovan Semancik]

Hi Adam,

Now, this is subscriber talking. So we have to listen. Do you have any 
plan how would you like to authenticate with your application? I think 
that using OAuth2 is currently a common practice. If that approach is 
suitable for you I would prefer that solution. But if you need something 
simpler we can do that instead. I think this can still fit into midPoint 
3.6 development plan.

We plan on having a home grown application that users will use that calls the midPoint API.  We require midPoint to audit that userX performed an action on userY rather than the audit record indicating "application user" performed the action.  However, storing userX's credentials to send in the API calls is not a feasible practice.  Thank you.
