    Description copied from interface: Authenticator
    
    Finds an AuthenticationHandler for the given request and call its AuthenticationHandler.requestAuthentication(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse) method to initiate an authentication process with the client to login to Sling.
    This method must be called on an uncommitted response since the implementation may want to reset the response to start the authentication process with a clean response. If the response is already committed an IllegalStateException is thrown.
    After this method has finished, request processing should be terminated and the response be considered committed and finished.
