An error occurs in t.s.pb.PBClientFactory.login() when passing t.c.Anonymous
credentials.

Currently PB only supports UsernamePassword credentials. Ideally we'd like to
support more, and have better way of defining what goes over network, rather
than just type of credential (e.g. some might want to use SRP, or send in clear
text since it's SSL but backend requires plaintext password.)

Meanwhile, you can define your own support for this by subclassing
PBClientFactory and PBServerFactory and extending the "protocol" (remote API).

#2313 is a duplicate of this. When the patch there is applied, this will be resolved as well.

(In [21124]) Merge pb-login-2312-2

Author: carlosedp, exarkun Reviewer: glyph, exarkun, therve Fixes #439 Fixes #2312

Add support for IAnonymous credentials to PBServerFactory and PBClientFactory. It is now possible to attempt a cred login anonymously using these classes. The cred portal is ultimately responsible for determining if the login should succeed or fail, as is the general case.
