[Security] Deprecated supportsAttribute and supportsClass methods
These methods aren't used at all in a Symfony application and don't make sense to use in the application. They are only used internally in the voters. This means the voter interface can be made much easier.
I'm not sure how we do these deprecations, should we remove the methods from the interface now already? Also, I don't think it's possible to trigger deprecation notices for the voter methods?

Abstract Voter
---
There is one remaining question about the abstract voter. This currently has abstract `getSupportedAttributes()` and `getSupportedClass()` methods. One of the reasons to remove the methods for the interface was that these methods are not flexible. Does it make sense to deprecate these methods as well and replace them by an abstract `protected vote(array $attributes, $class)` method in the `AbstractVoter` (which is called from `AbstractVoter#vote()`) ?

Hi guys!
Though it got much easier in 2.4 with `pre_auth`, authentication is a pain in Symfony. This introduces a new authentication provider called guard, with one goal in mind: put everything you need for *any* authentication system into one spot.
### How it works
With guard, you can perform custom authentication just by implementing the [GuardAuthenticatorInterface](https://github.com/weaverryan/symfony/blob/guard/src/Symfony/Component/Security/Guard/GuardAuthenticatorInterface.php) and registering it as a service. It has methods for every part of a custom authentication flow I can think of.
For a working example, see https://github.com/weaverryan/symfony-demo/tree/guard-auth. This uses 2 authenticators simultaneously, creating a system that handles [form login](https://github.com/weaverryan/symfony-demo/blob/guard-auth/src/AppBundle/Security/FormLoginAuthenticator.php) and [api token auth](https://github.com/weaverryan/symfony-demo/blob/guard-auth/src/AppBundle/Security/TokenAuthenticator.php) with a respectable amount of code. The [security.yml](https://github.com/weaverryan/symfony-demo/blob/guard-auth/app/config/security.yml) is also quite simple.
This also supports "manual login" without jumping through hoops: https://github.com/weaverryan/symfony-demo/blob/guard-auth/src/AppBundle/Controller/SecurityController.php#L45
I've also tested with "remember me" and "switch user" - no problems with either.
I hope you like it :).
### What's Needed
1) **Other Use-Cases?**: Please think about the code and try it. What use-cases are we *not* covering? I want Guard to be simple, but cover the 99.9% use-cases.
2) **Remember me** functionality cannot be triggered via manual login. That's true now, and it's not fixed, and it's tricky.
### Deprecations?
This is a new feature, so no deprecations. But, creating a login form with a guard authenticator is a whole heck of a lot easier to understand than `form_login` or even `simple_form`. In a perfect world, we'd either deprecate those or make them use "guard" internally so that we have just **one** way of performing authentication.
Thanks!

05af97c Initial commit (but after some polished work) of the new Guard authentication system
330aa7f Improving phpdoc on AuthenticationEntryPointInterface so people that implement this understand it
This is quite technical. As you can see in the provider, the method is called
sometimes when the User changes, and so the token becomes de-authenticated (e.g.
someone else changes the password between requests).
In practice, the user should be unauthenticated. Using the anonymous token did this,
but throwing an AccountStatusException seems like a better idea. It needs to be an
AccountStatusException because the ExceptionListener from the Firewall looks for exceptions
of this class and logs the user out when they are found (because this is their purpose).
This solution is a copy of what AbstractAuthenticationListener does. Scenario:
1) Login
2) Go back to the log in page
3) Put in a bad user/pass
You *should* still be logged in after a failed attempt. This commit gives that behavior.
This looks like a subjective change (one more method, but the method implementations are
simpler), but it wasn't. The problem was that the UserChecker checkPreAuth should happen
*after* we get the user, but *before* the credentials are checked, and that wasn't possible
before this change. Now it is.
Here is the flow:
A) You login using guard and are given a PostAuthGuardToken
B) Your user changes between requests - AbstractToken::setUser() and hasUserChanged() - which
results in the Token becoming "not authenticated"
C) Something calls out to the security system, which then passes the no-longer-authed
token back into the AuthenticationProviderManager
D) Because the PostauthGuardToken implements GuardTokenInterface, the provider responds
to it. But, seeing that this is a no-longer-authed PostAuthGuardToken, it returns
an AnonymousToken, which triggers logout
The reason is that the GuardAuthenticationProvider *must* respond to *all* tokens
created by the system - both "pre auth" and "post auth" tokens. The reason is that
if a "post auth" token becomes not authenticated (e.g. because the user changes between
requests), then it may be passed to the provider system. If no providers respond (which
was the case before this commit), then AuthenticationProviderManager throws an exception.
The next commit will properly handle these "post auth" + "no-longer-authenticated" tokens,
which should cause a log out.
