[jira] [Updated] (QPID-3283) Make AuthenticationManager pluggable

  Description: 
This improvement forms part of the proposal I made to the Qpid Developer List 
on 2011-05-16 in the posting entitled "Java Broker: Pluggable Authentication 
Managers".

The existing AuthenticationManager and configuration classes will be refactored 
to allow a user to choose an implementation of AuthenticationManager through 
new elements in the config.xml.

Existing use-cases (that is authentication against the etc/passwd file) will be 
maintained by plugging-in the PrincipalDatabaseAuthenticationManager 
implementation.   Future implementations of AuthenticationManager could then 
allow authentication to be delegated to an external system such as an LDAP 
Directory.

This change *will* alter the format of the config.xml file.  Existing users of 
<=0-12 will need to edit their config.xml when upgrading.  Documentation will 
be updated to guide upgraders and helpful error messages will gently reject 
older configure files.
