LoginService name

adc asked on IRC why we wanted the name of the LoginService to be "variable"

The main reason was to removed the hard coded ObjectName located in the 
code which contained the name of the configuration 
"org/apache/geronimo/Server"

This would preclude any use of the security services in an assembly with 
a different name.

The solution was to have the things that define login modules have a 
reference to the LoginService and them have them pass the name to the 
login modules as an option.
