The authorization service is used to ensure that a certain context has the required authorization.

This is a shared application service contract providing a single method:

• AuthorizeAsync(authContext: IAuthorizationContext, cancellationToken: CancellationToken = default): Task<bool>

An authorization context contains:

• Identity (inherited from the base IContext): the identity requesting authorization.
• RequiredPermissions/RequiredPermissionTypes: the list of permissions to check.
• Scope (optional): a scope object for which the required permissions apply.
• ThrowOnFailure (default true): A boolean value indicating whether to throw on authorization failure. If false is indicated, the authorization check will return false upon failure, otherwise an exception will occur.
