    story #5332 use a token to authenticate against the server
Summary
RESt consumer
use a token to authenticate against the server
- I don't overuse my password
- I can leverage on RESTler explorer
- I can generate a new API token (true-random, salted, etc)
- There is an expiry date associated to the token
- I can see all open sessions and expire them manually
- SYSTEM_CHECK expires old session

- I can use this token to authenticate (X-Auth-Token HTTP header)
- Restler explorer can use the token too
