#424: Nicknames Vs. email addresses to be the master identifier in external
authentication

When using any external authentication plugin (e.g. LDAP, SSO, Robot),
Invenio assumes the identifier is the email address. This is not
necessarily true, as the external system might use as master the nickname
or even an external ID.
There are two solution to this issue:
1. We might add a new config param to say whether it's the email Vs. the
nickname that is master
2. We add a new table, where we store for each external authentication
enabled method, the external identifier.
