0dd2649c1 (#9112) changed the signature of `auth_via_oidc`. Meanwhile,
26d10331e (#9091) introduced a new test which relied on the old signature of
`auth_via_oidc`. The two branches were never tested together until they landed
in develop.
* make the OIDC bits of the test work at a higher level - via the REST api instead of poking the OIDCHandler directly.
* Move it to test_login.py, where I think it fits better.
The two are equivalent, but really we want to check the HTTP result that got
returned to the channel, not the code that the Request object *intended* to
return to the channel.
The spec requires synapse to support `identifier` dicts for `m.login.password`
user-interactive auth, which it did not (instead, it required an undocumented
`user` parameter.)
To fix this properly, we need to pull the code that interprets `identifier`
into `AuthHandler.validate_login` so that it can be called from the UIA code.
Fixes#5665.
By persisting the user interactive authentication sessions to the database, this fixes
situations where a user hits different works throughout their auth session and also
allows sessions to persist through restarts of Synapse.
Pull the checkers out to their own classes, rather than having them lost in a
massive 1000-line class which does everything.
This is also preparation for some more intelligent advertising of flows, as per #6100
