External authenticators may not use our error types. We previously assumed that errors coming from the Authenticate method would be either an AuthenticationError or SDKProblem and performed a type-cast that could cause a panic. This makes the type checking more explicit, and in the case of an unexpected error type, wraps the error in a new SDKProblem object and returns it to keep our error types consistent.

of an unexpected error type, wraps the error in a new SDKProblem object and
returns it to keep our error types consistent.
