At least some Authority implementations should be JsonSerializable if not JsonUnserilazable

At least some Authority implementations should be JsonSerializable if not JsonUnserilazable. It would be nice if we could replace RequestContext::exportSession and RequestContext::importScopedSession mechanism. The `SimpleAuthority` and `AllAuthority` classes are trivially JsonSerializable and unserializable. For WebRequestAuthority we probably don't want it to become JsonSerializable cause there's no good way to unserialize it back. Perhaps we could create a SerializableAuthority interface and add an 'export' or 'snapshot', or 'asSerializable' method to Authority to do the conversion. For WebRequestAuthority, it will create a simpleAuthority with the same UserIdentity and same permissions, block status (?), web request details (?) and return it. For others it will simply return $this.
