   Previously authZ checks were done based on a complex set of parameters 
provided individually. This PR consolidates authZ inputs into the 
PolarisResolutionManifest with declarative "selector" objects depending on 
operation context.
   
   Naturally, Principal entity resolution is moved from the request 
authentication phase to authorization phase.
   
   Request authentication merely validates the provided principal ID and/or 
name, but does not immediately access related entities from storage.
   
   An anonymous authenticator and corresponding "allow all" authorizer are 
added as simple examples the separation of authN and authZ duties.
   
   Also, application config is updated to allow different authorizer 
implementations to be chosen in runtime.
