mod_unified_push: Add support for multiple token backends, including stoage
Now that we have ACLs by default, it is no longer necessary to be completely
stateless. On 0.12, using storage has benefits over JWT, because it does not
expose client JIDs to the push apps/services. In trunk, PASETO is stateless
and does not expose client JIDs.

| 9 authentication attempts. | |

| 11 It features an optioanal | |
| 12 [tarpit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarpit_%28networking%29), i.e. | |
| 13 waiting some time before returning an "authentication failed" response. | |
| 14 | |
| 15 Configuration | |
| 16 ============= | |
| 17 | |
| 18 ``` {.lua} | |
| 19 modules_enabled = { | |
| 20 -- your other modules | |
| 21 "limit_auth"; | |
| 22 } | |
| 23 | |
| 24 limit_auth_period = 30 -- over 30 seconds | |
| 25 | |
| 26 limit_auth_max = 5 -- tolerate no more than 5 failed attempts | |
