Fixes #413
Current workflow in main is "carousel page switched" -> "authenticate by username" -> "wait for password" -> "respond with password". But when a user has no password set,
LightDM.Greeter.authenticate (username)logs the user in without the need to provide the credential viaLightDM.Greeter.respond (credential).This PR changes workflow to "Wait for a card to call
authenticatewith username and credential" -> "authenticate" -> "respond"Also I put this logic into a separate class since
MainWindow.valais very long and it's very hard to read code there.
