Summary: Ref T1536. Like D6080, we don't need to store the registration key itself. This prevents a theoretical attacker who can read the database but not write to it from hijacking registrations.
Test Plan: Registered a new account.

Summary:
Currently, registration and authentication are pretty messy. Two concrete problems:
- The `PhabricatorLDAPRegistrationController` and `PhabricatorOAuthDefaultRegistrationController` controllers are giant copy/pastes of one another. This is really bad.
- We can't practically implement OpenID because we can't reissue the authentication request.
Additionally, the OAuth registration controller can be replaced wholesale by config, which is a huge API surface area and a giant mess.
Broadly, the problem right now is that registration does too much: we hand it some set of indirect credentials (like OAuth tokens) and expect it to take those the entire way to a registered user. Instead, break registration into smaller steps:
- User authenticates with remote service.
- Phabricator pulls information (remote account ID, username, email, real name, profile picture, etc) from the remote service and saves it as `PhabricatorUserCredentials`.
- Phabricator hands the `PhabricatorUserCredentials` to the registration form, which is agnostic about where they originate from: it can process LDAP credentials, OAuth credentials, plain old email credentials, HTTP basic auth credentials, etc.
This doesn't do anything yet -- there is no way to create credentials objects (and no storage patch), but I wanted to get any initial feedback, especially about the event call for T2394. In particular, I think the implementation would look something like this:
$profile = $event->getValue('profile')
$username = $profile->getDefaultUsername();
$is_employee = is_this_a_facebook_employee($username);
if (!$is_employee) {
throw new Exception("You are not employed at Facebook.");
}
$fbid = get_fbid_for_facebook_username($username);
$profile->setDefaultEmail($fbid);
$profile->setCanEditUsername(false);
$profile->setCanEditEmail(false);
$profile->setCanEditRealName(false);
$profile->setShouldVerifyEmail(true);
Seem reasonable?
Test Plan: N/A yet, probably fatals.
