- Fixed session invalidation for "locked" user
- Currently Ghost API was returning 404 for users having status set to "locked". This lead the user to be stuck in Ghost-Admin with "Rousource Not Found" error message.
- By returning 401 for non-"active" users it allows for the Ghost-Admin to redirect the user to "signin" screen where they would be instructed to reset their password
- Fixed error message returned by session API
- Instead of returning generic 'access' denied message when error happens during `User.check` we want to return more specific error thrown inside of the method, e.g.: 'accountLocked' or 'accountSuspended'
- Fixed messaging for 'accountLocked' i18n, which not corresponds to the
actual UI available to the end user
- Added automatic password reset email to locked users on sign-in
- uses alternative email for required password reset so it's clear that this is a security related reset and not a user-requested reset
- Backported the auto sending of required password reset email to v2 sign-in route
- used by 3rd party clients where the email is necessary for users to know why login is failing

no issue
- Session controllers were using API v1 http method which bypassed "frame" introduced with API v2.
- Changes here are just a long-awaited cleanup to allow completely remove v0.1 code
no-issue
- Added spam prevention to POST /session
- This blocks repeated requests the the /session endpoint preventing brute
force password attacks
- Updated session controller to reset brute middleware
- This updates the session controller to reset the brute force protection
on a successful login. This is required so that a user is not locked out
forever :o!!

Note that this controller is the singular, that's because we plan to
make a session resource controller to be used with /sessions, wheras
this is on /session
