Logout existing sessions after an auth config change

[Func86]

Closes #18443.

UPDATE, disregard the above. It should be done in WebUI::configure() instead. This is where the server updates the configuration.

The same as currently. WebUI will have to store the previous username/password values to detect that they have changed.

I think the following should work:

1. add a new signal Preferences::webCredentialsChanged()
2. the new signal will be emitted when the webui username updated or password hash updated. (no need to compare to the old value, just emit the signal)
3. WebApplication will connect to the signal and remove all sessions when receiving the signal.

It could do the job.

Closes #18443.

It also mentions some other settings besides the username and password, changing which should lead to the termination of sessions.

How about it?
