Fix logout behavior: when a user logs out from one product, it should not log them out from all products

Context: multiple unrelated products will be within the same deploy. Users logging out from one will logout from another.

• This is by design: If multiple products are deployed, users have access to either lite/science or pro versions but not both.
• Think of google account. If you logout in google drive, you also logout from any of its services and even third parties.
• A way to go would be to advertise that this is one account gives you access to all

@pcrespov Yes, but now there will be situations where some users have access to both oSparc and Sim4Life. So this behavior should be revised.

@giancarloromeo @matusdrobuliak66 Q: What happens when you sign out of your Google account? You’re logged out of every site that uses it for authentication (not only google products but any site!). That’s also how osparc currently works. The only mismatch is that we don’t explicitly present the user as having a “global z43-wide” account.

So I still don’t think this issue is necessary. I’d prefer moving toward the z43-wide account model. A shorthand would be to write in the login "z43 user account email"

And this isn’t a bug — the behavior is intentional. If anything, it’s a spec redesign.
