[keycloak-user] Authenticate user without using login page

[Rodrigo Sasaki]

I don't want to miss out on all of that, which is why we're mostly
migrating everything to use keycloak that way.

It's just that we have cases that are so specific, that it would be better
to authenticate the user in a different manner, create the user session and
everything, without redirecting.

I'll have a look at that code. Thanks!
