Description
If we don't specify authentication settings in a configuration here is what happens after clicking the Sign In button:
### WP.com
### WP core (without OAuth1 plugin installed)
### WP core (with OAuth1 plugin installed)
### Next steps
- Maybe add a new auth provider `auth/none.js` and use it if the required parameters are not present - it doesn't make sense to have requests go through `oauth1.js` or `oauth2.js` if we know there is no auth.
- Detect this condition and make some UI changes accordingly (disable the Sign In button; maybe show an "unauthed" indicator instead).
- Add a note to the readme about this.
- Improve error handling for authentication requests in general.
