Description

Please write a short description detailing the entire authentication process, from the moment an anauthenticated client connects to a service backed by astakos, to the moment the client is authenticated and has an API token.

There are at least two distinct use cases:
a) protection of web-based services
b) protection of API calls: get an API token, use it to authenticate against an astakos-backed API

Please document the entire workflow: clients, servers, cookies, tokens, for each of the above two use cases, and any other cases you can identify.

This is a prerequisite for Alpha2 deployment.
