*SVN*
+* Added authentication framework to protect actions behind a condition and redirect on failure. See ActionController::Authentication for more.

+ # Authentication standardizes the need to protect certain actions unless a given condition is fulfilled. It doesn't address
+ # _how_ someone becomes authorized, but only that if the condition isn't fulfilled a redirect to a given place will happen.
+ #
+ # The authentication model is setup up in two stages. One to configure the authentication, which is often done in the super-most
+ # class (such as ApplicationController in Rails), and then the protection of actions in the individual controller subclasses:
+ #
+ # class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
+ # authentication :by => '@session[:authenticated]', :failure => { :controller => "login" }
+ # end
+ #
+ # class WeblogController < ApplicationController
+ # authenticates :edit, :update
+ #
+ # def show() render_text "I showed something" end
+ # def index() render_text "I indexed something" end
+ # def edit() render_text "I edited something" end
+ # def update() render_text "I updated something" end
+ # def login() @session[:authenticated] = true; render_nothing end
+ # end
+ #
+ # In the example above, the edit and update methods are protected by an authentication condition that requires
+ # <tt>@session[:authenticated]</tt> to be true. If that is not the case, the request is redirected to LoginController#index.
+ # Note that the :by condition is enclosed in single quotes. This is because we want to defer evaluation of the condition until
+ # we're at run time. Also note, that the :failure option uses the same format as Base#url_for and friends do to perform the redirect.
+ module ClassMethods
+ # Enables authentication for this class and all its subclasses.
+ #
+ # Options are:
+ # * <tt>:by</tt> - the code fragment that will be evaluated on each request to determine whether the request is authenticated.
+ # * <tt>:failure</tt> - redirection options following the format of Base#url_for.
