[MAGNOLIA-3557] is a new security feature that locks an account out after a 
number of failed login attempts. This feature is available starting with 
Magnolia 4.4.3 and needs to be documented.

The feature is configurable in {{/server/security/userManagers}} and works for 
SystemUserManager and MgnlUserManager classes. Maximum number of attempts that 
triggers a lockout is 5 by default. Value 0 disables the function. Lockout is 
implemented by setting the {{user.enabled}} property to {{false}}. A lock can 
be removed by an administrator by enabling the user again in the user edit 
dialog (checkbox)
