A handful of routes, described in this PR as "mixed routes", are currently accessible by both web-based sessions and authenticated API users. The goal of this PR is to allow access to these routes for Authorized Integrations as well, bringing them to full API compatibility (to my knowledge) with other authentication methods. These routes are impacted:
- `/{username}/{repo}/raw/*`
- `/{username}/{repo}/archive/*`
- `/{username}/{repo}/releases/download/{vTag}/{fileName}`
- `/{username}/{repo}/attachments/{uuid}`
- `/attachments/{uuid}`
The major work in this PR was to refactoring the existing authentication methods so that "path based matching" that they were currently doing was no longer required, as I didn't want to introduce that into Authorized Integrations. All the path based matching is removed in this PR, and authentication methods are enabled entirely by the middleware applied to their endpoints.

- [x] in the `tests/integration` directory if it involves interactions with a live Forgejo server.
- I ran...
- [x] `make pr-go` before pushing
### Documentation
- [ ] I created a pull request [to the documentation](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/docs) to explain to Forgejo users how to use this change.
- [x] I did not document these changes and I do not expect someone else to do it.
### Release notes
- [ ] This change will be noticed by a Forgejo user or admin (feature, bug fix, performance, etc.). I suggest to include a release note for this change.
- [x] This change is not visible to a Forgejo user or admin (refactor, dependency upgrade, etc.). I think there is no need to add a release note for this change.

Currently authentication methods return information in two forms: they return who was authenticated as a `*user_model.User`, and then they insert key-values into `ctx.Data` which has critical impact on how the authenticated request is treated. This PR changes the authentication methods to return structured data in the form of an `AuthenticationResult`, with all the key-value information in `ctx.Data` being moved into methods on the `AuthenticationResult` interface.
Authentication workflows in Forgejo are a real mess. This is the first step in trying to clean it up and make the code predictable and reasonable, and is both follow-up work that was identified from the repo-specific access tokens (where the `"ApiTokenReducer"` key-value was added), and is pre-requisite work to future JWT enhancements that are [being discussed](https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/3571#issuecomment-13268004).

- [ ] in the `tests/integration` directory if it involves interactions with a live Forgejo server.
- All changes, at least in theory, are refactors of existing logic and are not expected to have functional deviations -- existing regression tests are the only planned testing.
