Flexible authentication solution for Rails with Warden.

Devise::Strategies::Authenticatable#valid_password?

Note: unlike `Model.valid_password?`, this method does not actually
ensure that the password in the params matches the password stored in
the database. It only checks if the password is *present*. Do not rely
on this method for validating that a given password is correct.
