Enhance connector-manager protocol to test whether credentials are needed.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In order to decide whether it needs to prompt the user for credentials, the
GSA needs to know whether any connectors require them.  Basically, this is
a request to make the GSA's ConnectorManagerAdmin#needsAuthn() work
properly; right now it just tests whether there are any connectors at all,
not whether they do credentials verification.

It should be sufficient to test whether the getAuthenticationManager()
method returns a non-null result for one or more connectors.

This request is being driven from GSA bug 916350.
