Working on Mozilla Persona support (browser id)
This will let a user log into Koha using browser id, if their email
address used matches the email address inside Koha.
Once an assertion is received, we simply need to find the user that
matches that email address, and create a session for them.
opac/svc/login handles this part.
The nice thing about it is, the user doesn't have to do anything, like
linking their account. As long as the email address they are using to
identify themselves in browserid is the same as the one in Koha it
will just work.
This is covered by a systempreference, to allow people to do it, and
is of course totally opt in, it works alongside normal Koha (or any
other method) of login. So only those choosing to use it, need use it
Test Plan
1/ Make sure OPACBaseURL is set correctly
2/ Switch on the Persona syspref
3/ Make a borrower (or edit one) to have the email you plan to use as
the primary email
4/ Click sign in with email, make or use a persona account
5/ Logout
6/ Check you can still login and logout the normal way

Comment: Works great.
It's not browser dependent, but tested with chrome, firefox, opera and safari.
Old an new login system works.
Minor errors, addresed in follow-up.
