Adds two sets of DEBUG logging for authentication failures 1. In Pluggable authentication chain, log the failure reason if authentication is terminated. Without this the actual failure reason is lost becauser we return a generic error to the client. 2. For all authentication failures, add a general debug log in `AuthenticatorChain` so that we know that every authentication failure is logged somewhere, even if the specific chain handler doesn't log it. We also add a trace log for successful authentication
