auth: track API key used for authentication in AuthUser
This allows us to define only once how an API key is passed to the app.
We might e.g. allow API keys to be passed in an HTTP header; with this
change, we only need to update the code in one place.
Also change the code to verify up front that the API key resolved to a
valid and active user, so LoginRequired doesn't need to do that.
Also return plain 403 Forbidden for bad API keys instead of redirecting
to the login form, which makes more sense for non-interactive clients
(the typical users of API keys).

Debugging Kallithea
===================
If you encounter problems with Kallithea, here are some instructions
on how to debug them.
.. note:: First make sure you're using the latest version available.
Enable detailed debug
---------------------
Kallithea uses the standard Python ``logging`` module to log its output.
By default only loggers with ``INFO`` level are displayed. To enable full output
change ``level = DEBUG`` for all logging handlers in the currently used .ini file.
This change will allow you to see much more detailed output in the log file or
console. This generally helps a lot to track issues.
Enable interactive debug mode
-----------------------------
To enable interactive debug mode simply comment out ``set debug = false`` in
the .ini file. This will trigger an interactive debugger each time
there is an error in the browser, or send a http link if an error occurred in the backend. This
is a great tool for fast debugging as you get a handy Python console right
in the web view.
.. warning:: NEVER ENABLE THIS ON PRODUCTION! The interactive console
can be a serious security threat to your system.
