Hi Giacinto,
Reading through your patches, I'm missing an overarching explanation of
why we need this. Do you really have an LTE network in range that
requires authentication for the default APN? What happens if
authentication fails... are you connected to an alternative APN
automatically, with other service parameters? What indication is
available to the user if authentication fails?

added 4 properties for handling the type of context and the
authentication method, exactly like in any gprs context handling.
The properties are named after the equivalent gprs-context one, for
compatibility and uniformity.
