Since 3.3.0: loadIdentifier() usage is deprecated. Directly pass `'identifier'` config to the Authenticator.

With the latest updates installed I get the following deprecation warning:

Since 3.3.0: loadIdentifier() usage is deprecated. Directly pass `'identifier'` config to the Authenticator.

I guess this has been fixed by cakephp/authentication#734

[LordSimal]

Actually it wasn't fixed.

I'm not sure if we can remove that call now.

To avoid issue with existing applications the solution is to manually update confgs in the app to remove config key 'Auth.Identifiers' and update 'Auth.Authenticators' with new keys.

Configure::write('Auth.Identifiers', []);

[LordSimal]

Well the default config can be adjusted to contain the new array structure.
Then all "default" installs won't have that problem anymore.

For anyone who adjusted their config to have adjusted authenticator and identifiert config, they need to adjust it accordingly (which can be mentioned in the next release of this plugin imho)

[steinkel]

This change will be selected for the next major release, as existing users would experience a breaking change in their working configurations. The Authenticators and Identifiers array will be merged in configuration to match the new convention.
