/**
 * <h2>Implementation Characteristics</h2>
 *
 * Default implementation of the <code>UserManager</code> interface with the
 * following characteristics:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>Users and Groups are stored in the repository as JCR nodes.</li>
 * <li>Users are created below {@link UserConstants#USERS_PATH},<br>Groups are
 * created below {@link UserConstants#GROUPS_PATH} (unless otherwise configured).</li>
 * <li>The Id of an authorizable is stored in the jcr:uuid property (md5 hash).</li>
 * <li>In order to structure the users and groups tree and avoid creating a flat
 * hierarchy, additional hierarchy nodes of type "rep:AuthorizableFolder" are
 * introduced using
 *    <ul>
 *    <li>the specified intermediate path passed to the create methods</li>
 *    <li>or some built-in logic if the intermediate path is missing.</li>
 *    </ul>
 * </li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h3>Authorizable Creation</h3>
 *
 * The built-in logic applies the following rules:
 * <ul>
 * <li>The names of the hierarchy folders is determined from ID of the
 * authorizable to be created, consisting of the leading N chars where N is
 * the relative depth starting from the node at {@link #getUsersPath()}
 * or {@link #getGroupsPath()}.</li>
 * <li>By default 2 levels (depth == 2) are created.</li>
 * <li>Parent nodes are expected to consist of folder structure only.</li>
 * <li>If the ID contains invalid JCR chars that would prevent the creation of
 * a Node with that name, the names of authorizable node and the intermediate
 * hierarchy nodes are {@link Text#escapeIllegalJcrChars(String) escaped}.</li>
 * </ul>
 * Examples:
 * Creating an non-existing user with ID 'aSmith' without specifying an
 * intermediate path would result in the following structure:
 *
 * <pre>
 * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]
 *   + rep:authorizables     [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *     + rep:users           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *       + a                 [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *         + aS              [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *           + aSmith        [rep:User]
 * </pre>
 *
 * Creating a non-existing user with ID 'aSmith' specifying an intermediate
 * path 'some/tree' would result in the following structure:
 *
 * <pre>
 * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]
 *   + rep:authorizables     [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *     + rep:users           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *       + some              [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *         + tree            [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
 *           + aSmith        [rep:User]
 * </pre>
 *
 * <h3>Configuration</h3>
 *
 * This <code>UserManager</code> is able to handle the following configuration
 * options:
 *
 * <h4>Configuration Parameters</h4>
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_USERS_PATH}: Defines where user nodes are created.
 * If missing set to {@link #USERS_PATH}.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_GROUPS_PATH}. Defines where group nodes are created.
 * If missing set to {@link #GROUPS_PATH}.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_COMPATIBLE_JR16}: If the param is present and its
 * value is <code>true</code> looking up authorizables by ID will use the
 * <code>NodeResolver</code> if not found otherwise.<br>
 * If the parameter is missing (or false) users and groups created
 * with a Jackrabbit repository &lt; v2.0 will not be found any more.<br>
 * By default this option is disabled.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_DEFAULT_DEPTH}: Parameter used to change the number of
 * levels that are used by default to store authorizable nodes.<br>The value is
 * expected to be a positive integer greater than zero. The default
 * number of levels is 2.
 * </li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_AUTO_EXPAND_TREE}: If this parameter is present and its
 * value is <code>true</code>, the trees containing user and group nodes will
 * automatically created additional hierarchy levels if the number of nodes
 * on a given level exceeds the maximal allowed {@link #PARAM_AUTO_EXPAND_SIZE size}.
 * <br>By default this option is disabled.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_AUTO_EXPAND_SIZE}: This parameter only takes effect
 * if {@link #PARAM_AUTO_EXPAND_TREE} is enabled.<br>The value is expected to be
 * a positive long greater than zero. The default value is 1000.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_GROUP_MEMBERSHIP_SPLIT_SIZE}: If this parameter is present
 * group memberships are collected in a node structure below {@link UserConstants#N_MEMBERS}
 * instead of the default multi valued property {@link UserConstants#P_MEMBERS}.
 * Its value determines the maximum number of member properties until additional
 * intermediate nodes are inserted. Valid parameter values are integers &gt; 4.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_PASSWORD_HASH_ALGORITHM}: Optional parameter to configure
 * the algorithm used for password hash generation. The default value is
 * {@link PasswordUtility#DEFAULT_ALGORITHM}.</li>
 * <li>{@link #PARAM_PASSWORD_HASH_ITERATIONS}: Optional parameter to configure
 * the number of iterations used for password hash generations. The default
 * value is {@link PasswordUtility#DEFAULT_ITERATIONS}.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <h4>Authorizable Actions</h4>
 * In addition to the specified configuration parameters this user manager
 * implementation allows to define zero to many {@link AuthorizableAction}s.
 * Authorizable actions provide the ability to execute additional validation or
 * tasks upon authorizable creation, removal and upon changing a users password.<br/>
 * See also {@link org.apache.jackrabbit.core.config.UserManagerConfig#getAuthorizableActions()}

     * <li>Below each category authorizables are created within a human readable

     * with a depth defined by the <code>defaultDepth</code> config option.<br>
     * E.g. creating a user node for an ID 'aSmith' would result in the following

     * <pre>
     * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]

     * </li>
     * <li>In case of a user the node name is calculated from the specified UserID
     * {@link Text#escapeIllegalJcrChars(String) escaping} any illegal JCR chars.
     * In case of a Group the node name is calculated from the specified principal
     * name circumventing any conflicts with existing ids and escaping illegal chars.</li>
     * <li>If no intermediate path is passed the names of the intermediate
     * folders are calculated from the leading chars of the escaped node name.</li>
     * <li>If the escaped node name is shorter than the <code>defaultDepth</code>
     * the last char is repeated.<br>
     * E.g. creating a user node for an ID 'a' would result in the following
     * structure assuming defaultDepth == 2 is used:
     * <pre>
     * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]
     *   + rep:authorizables     [rep:AuthorizableFolder]

     * </pre>
     * </li>
     * <li>If the <code>autoExpandTree</code> option is <code>true</code> the
     * user tree will be automatically expanded using additional levels if
     * <code>autoExpandSize</code> is exceeded within a given level.</li>
     * </ul>
     *
     * The auto-expansion of the authorizable tree is defined by the following
     * steps and exceptional cases:
     * <ul>
     * <li>As long as <code>autoExpandSize</code> isn't reached authorizable
     * nodes are created within the structure defined by the
     * <code>defaultDepth</code>. (see above)</li>
     * <li>If <code>autoExpandSize</code> is reached additional intermediate
     * folders will be created.<br>
     * E.g. creating a user node for an ID 'aSmith1001' would result in the
     * following structure:
     * <pre>
     * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]
     *   + rep:authorizables     [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *     + rep:users           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *       + a                 [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *         + aS              [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *           + aSmith1       [rep:User]
     *           + aSmith2       [rep:User]

     * ->          + aSmith1001  [rep:User]
     * </pre>
     * </li>
     * <li>Conflicts: In order to prevent any conflicts that would arise from
     * creating a authorizable node that upon later expansion could conflict
     * with an authorizable folder, intermediate levels are always created if
     * the node name equals any of the names reserved for the next level of
     * folders.<br>
     * In the example above any attempt to create a user with ID 'aSm' would
     * result in an intermediate level irrespective if max-size has been
     * reached or not:
     * <pre>
     * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]
     *   + rep:authorizables     [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *     + rep:users           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *       + a                 [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *         + aS              [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     * ->        + aSm           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     * ->          + aSm         [rep:User]
     * </pre>
     * </li>
     * <li>Special case: If the name of the authorizable node to be created is
     * shorter or equal to the length of the folder at level N, the authorizable
     * node is created even if max-size has been reached before.<br>
     * An attempt to create the users 'aS' and 'aSm' in a structure containing
     * tons of 'aSmith' users will therefore result in:
     * <pre>
     * + rep:security            [nt:unstructured]
     *   + rep:authorizables     [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *     + rep:users           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *       + a                 [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *         + aS              [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
     *           + aSmith1       [rep:User]
     *           + aSmith2       [rep:User]
     *           [...]
     *           + aSmith1000    [rep:User]

     *           + aSm           [rep:AuthorizableFolder]
