PR #34290 made it impossible to use thread-context values to pass
authentication metadata out of a realm. The SAML realm used this
technique to allow the SamlAuthenticateAction to process the parsed
SAML token, and apply them to the access token that was generated.

This new method adds metadata to the AuthenticationResult itself, and
then the authentication service makes this result available on the
thread context.

Closes: #34332

LGTM

I wonder if we should consider putting the metadata object on the authentication object? It might be extra overhead that we don't need so I am not asking for it to be done here.
