Allow to use the same client for multiple users

[maingoh]

This would allow to use the same requests.Session with multiple users. This imply overriding the api key while doing the request.

Probably we should have an interface like this:

user = Client(host=host).User(api_key=api_key)
user.RecognitionSpec.retrieve()

Or

client = Client(host=host)
user = User(client=client, api_key=api_key)
user.RecognitionSpec.retrieve()

It might be a breaking changes. We could somehow make it retrocompatible though.

Why is it necessary? Why does it make things easier for user?

[maingoh]

It makes things easier for us. Caching a client for each user is not very convenient and optimized. The change for a single user is not very complicated also. We can also try to be retrocompatible, keep the previous auth for single user:

client = Client(api_key=api_key, host=host)

For multiple users:

session = Session(host=host)
user = session.user(api_key=api_key)

I believe you but can you be more specific about easier for us ? In what context do you need to handle multiple users with one client ?

The only use-case I see so far is Vesta when performing actions on Vulcan on behalf of a user ?

Another use case is the customer api forwarding some requests to api.deepomatic.com using different api keys.

This is not urgent anyway, we are caching one client per user for now.
