The application may also use any number of custom authentication method it wants. Each such method is identified by a unique string name (such as 'pin', 'fingerprint', or 'fingerprint-v2'). It may specify them in DefaultAuthMethods property, or provide on the fly via AuthStart event.
The event handler may return authentication parameters and application-specific data to be associated with the authentication attempt via AuthMethodPars and AuthMethodData parameters.
