Authentication has grown more complex with the addition of new realm
types and authentication methods. When user authentication does not
behave as expected it can be difficult to determine where and why it
failed.

This commit adds DEBUG and TRACE logging at key points in the
authentication flow so that it is possible to gain addition insight
into the operation of the system.
