[mitreid-connect] support for acr in id_token

Naveen,

Your best bet is probably going to be to put something into the user's 
session to indicate how they came in, then reach into that object when 
you're building the ID Token in your own version of the 
OIDCTokenService. You can access Spring Security's current security 
context object statically, so this shouldn't be hard to pull off.

Alternatively (and probably more cleanly), you can save it into the 
Authentication object itself, probably in the extensions Map that's in 
there. We use that map for things like prompt conditions, authentication 
time, and other components. Take a look at how the 
AuthenticationTimeStamper class works as an example of this, which sets 
the auth_age parameter in the ID Token.
