[keycloak-user] Authenticate user without using login page

[Bill Burke]

If you want to handle your own login pages, IMO, you are missing out on 
a lot of Keycloak features.  Specifically:

* SSO
* forgot password
* admin forced credential reset/setup


Login pages can be styled however you like to look like your application.

There is a REST api for obtaining an access token.  Here is an example:
