Changes PAM.authenticate to return a generic AuthenticatedUser. * Uses UnixUser.exists instead of manually checking libc.passwd, then returns either a UnixUser or a generic AuthenticatedUser. * Non-backwards compatible because of the method signature change on PAM.authenticate.
Changes UnixUser to be a subclass of the generic AuthenticatedUser.

Fixes #2

@kohsuke any chance for this to get into libpam4j?

My apologies for ignoring this for too long. It just went below my radar.

I'd like to massage the change to be backward compatible. I think we can do it by using bridge method injector

no worries, I know what it's like maintaining open source software.

I think I can swing that change some time next week. Have a timeline for a new release in mind?
