[JENKINS-17740] configureSecurity securityRealm test tool gives 404 error

http://localhost:8080/jenkins/configureSecurity/securityRealm/test gives 404 error

I found the link from AD help description text

If you have trouble setting up the AD authentication, set authorization to "Anyone can do anything", and use this authentication test tool to diagnose the problem. (this tool can be still used with more strict authorization scheme, as long as you have the admin access to Jenkins yourself.)
