At the moment, there are a couple different places where authenticated sessions
get created. One is checkauth() and another is check_api_auth(). 

I would also like to create consistently structured authenticated sessions from
Koha Plugins.

There should be a standard API for creating and fetching sessions. I propose a
Koha::Session wrapper. 

It will define Koha's standard session key set and have some automatic
population for things like 'ip' and 'lasttime'. 

There will also be a method for setting the C4::Context->userenv, which is
something that gets done repeatedly in checkauth(), check_api_auth(),
check_cookie_auth(), and other less relevant places (like checkpw_internal
which is bizarre).

I think that this is a reasonable step forward as we add AuthN and AuthZ to
things like Koha plugins and Mojolicious controllers.
