    Remove the unused Authenticate method

-
-Takes $password, $created and $nonce, and returns a boolean value
-representing whether the authentication succeeded.
-
-If both $nonce and $created are specified, validate $password against:

-    encode_base64(sha1(

-        $created .
-        sha1_hex( "$username:$realm:$server_pass" )

-where $server_pass is the md5_hex(password) digest stored in the
-database, $created is in ISO time format, and $nonce is a random
-string no longer than 32 bytes.
