	Authenticate a transport request.

Detailed Description

Abstract authentication provider used by server integrations.

The provider does not own request data; authenticate() receives a borrowed AuthRequest for the duration of the call and returns a value identity on success. Authentication failures and provider errors are propagated through core::Result so the caller can map them to protocol or HTTP errors.
