Description

Now that tapir's endpoint has gained a dedicated authentication/security channel it would be nice to integrate it with the existing backend-specific libraries. I found the following libraries which do the job for one specific backend:

In fact, it looks like a lot of work has been poured into https://github.com/softwaremill/akka-http-session. Perhaps it would be possible to re-use it and abstract over the backend.

Research direction

Start by reading tapir's dedicated endpoint authentication/security channel and comparing the referenced backend-specific libraries: akka-http-session, http4s-session, and tsec. The issue does not name files or tests; clarify which backends and abstraction boundaries are in scope, then define completion as integrations that support the agreed existing libraries.
