Using popups is becoming increasingly rare. Full page redirects are already used on mobile, and for some providers. This commit removes all logic related to popup authentication, leaving only the full page redirect method.

This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
Previously we relied on the provider name matching the name of the icon. Now icon names are explicitly set. Plugin providers which do not define an icon will get the default "sign-in-alt" icon
Also added some helpful functionality for plugin developers:
- Raises RuntimeException if the auth provider has been registered too late
- Logs use of deprecated parameters
At the moment core providers are hard-coded in Javascript, and plugin providers get added to the JS payload at compile time. This refactor means that we only ship enabled providers to the client.
