Research direction

Start by locating the authentication entry point that currently accesses a window from a view controller, then trace its callers and the UIWindow/ASWebAuthenticationPresentationContextProviding usage. The work is done when the presentation-context argument is passed directly through the relevant API and the window lookup is no longer required.
