       Validates an HTTP requests access authorization with a session database.

       Taking an identity token to be validated (as determined by the external_acl_type format) it returns a
       username or tag associated with the identity token passed in.

       Common forms of identifiers are IP address, EUI (MAC) address, passwords, or UUID tokens.

       This program uses Squid concurrency support.
