[undertow-dev] modeling the handler Factory interface

[Bill Burke]

Not sure what "custom auth scheme" means yet, but my implementation 
includes the following:

* a way to define an oauth provider
* a way to use oauth as an SSO mechanism (an oauth consumer)
* traditional oauth thirdparty auth
* bearer token auth
* bearer token grants
* a few management URIs for distributed log-out

I'm also not exactly sure what a "handler" is supposed to be yet, but 
based on the above, there's a number of URI endpoints that need to be 
added and supported automatically.

I'm currently bogged down trying to pass the jaxrs2 tck.  My next task 
is to try and port my oauth stuff, at least as a prototype, to help 
flush out the security APIs or at least to be an additional guinea pig.
