* Introduce Tracks::Config class to wrap environment.rb config settings
* Remove unused admin and index actions from user_controller
* Introduce flash partial and standardize on symbol keys for the flash hash
* Replace usages of render_partial with render :partial
Two new authentication options! These probably need documentation...
* Introduce LDAP authentication option (see configuration in environment.rb.tmpl). Thanks to Jeremy Evans for creating the SimpleLdapAuthenticator plugin. Note: the ldap auth integration test is likely to be fragile. Works for me on OS X with openldap, but your mileage may vary.
* Introduce Open ID authentication option (see configuration in environment.rb.tmpl and http://openid.net for more info). Thanks to East Media for the Open ID Consumer Plugin.
In environment.rb, you can enable any combination of the three auth options. If you have more than one selected, users can opt between them via their preferences pages. To play with the Open ID auth, you can get an identity at pip.verisignlabs.com.
Note that there are some new migrations to support the new authentication options, so don't forget to rake migrate!

Added UserController#create to provide RESTful API for the admin user to create a new user in the system. This may be useful for the folks who have generously opened their Tracks installs to others. I have plans to document the RESTful API stuff at some point and write a Ruby wrapper.
Created a class method User.get_salt that wraps all calls to the SALT constant so that unit-tests can be always run with the default salt (I was previously needing to modify my environment.rb to run tests).
Replaced usages of assert_success in tests with assert_response :success because assert_success is deprecated.
