This adds an implementation of AuthRequestor that communicates directly with Plymouth, alongside the existing systemd version that uses systemd-ask-password. Future PRs will update the AuthRequestor interface so that ActivateContext can send user credential error messages directly to Plymouth, and so that the most appropriate implementation of AuthRequestor is selected automatically. Fixes: FR-12403
