Passport-based User Authentication system for sails.js applications.

/**
 * OpenID Authentication Protocol
 *
 * OpenID is an open standard for federated authentication. When visiting a
 * website, users present their OpenID to sign in. The user then authenticates
 * with their chosen OpenID provider, which issues an assertion to confirm the
 * user's identity. The website verifies this assertion in order to sign the
 * user in.
 *
 * For more information on OpenID in Passport.js, check out:
 * http://passportjs.org/guide/openid/
 *
 * @param {Object}   req
 * @param {string}   identifier
 * @param {Object}   profile
 * @param {Function} next
