Revision 9a4ed000

Added by Tomáš Strachota over 7 years ago

Fixes #17487 - support sessions for api calls

- authenticated api calls save user to session and set
flag api_authenticated_session
- sessions with such flag allow posting requests without CSRF token
- api sessions exipre the same way as UI sessions
- api sessions don't store any additional data to keep the requests
stateless

This way the standard UI requests as well as API requests authenticated
with session created from UI remain protected against CSRF. At the same
time applications using API (such as hammer) can benefit from using
session authentication and avoid the need of storing two tokens
(CSRF and _session_id).
