Redesign user security system

[GenPage]

This needs to be revisited and throughly re-designed. The current system is lacking in terms of access control and allowing actions to be performed on modpacks and mods that directly effect each other.

Before digging yourself into that, I suggest to look at the newes version of laravel, which has great n features concerning this https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/authorization

@GenPage Is there interest in multi-tenancy of the application; or would this still be a single-tenant application, just with improved access control for multiple users.

This part sounds more like database integrity checks than security? Maybe you can expand on this a little.

Just trying to capture this as it relates to #617

@Indemnity83 Initially this was thought of to still be a single-tenant application with rewritten access controls for multiple users.

What are your thoughts on multi-tenancy? Is there an advantage you could this architecture applying to Solder?

The only reason to do so would be if the Technic team wanted to host a version of it.
