STSSecurityHandler: Refactor and have the security token be passed to this handler via the SOAPMessageContext instead of subclassing
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBID-216
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBID-216
             Project: JBoss Identity
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Identity-Federation
    Affects Versions: IDFED-1.0.0.beta3
            Reporter: Daniel Bevenius
            Assignee: Daniel Bevenius
            Priority: Minor


Currently the STSSecurityHeader is abstract and concrete implementations are expected to implement two methods that return the QName of the Security element and that of the security token that this handler can handle. 
I think that this was perhaps not a good choice on my part and a better choice would be to push this responsibility to a different handler that would have the responsibility to extract the security token and set that token in the SOAPMessageContext in a known location. 
This should make this more extendable and less brittle (no subclassing). Users that want to extract a different security token, or simply a different version, only need to change/implement a handler and extract the correct security token and set it in the context.
