Passport is the authentication middleware we use to manage user authentication and sessions. We need to upgrade it to version 0.7.0. As a result we need to update our Passport Strategy to a different version (passport-github2) and update the passport types to keep Typescript happy.
express-sessions has also been installed instead of client-sessions for better compatibility, circumnavigating configuration shim which would otherwise be necessary to avoid errors regarding the regenerate() method we were noticing previously.
