doc: Clarify OAuth validator authn_id logging

Document that OAuth validators can return an authenticated identity
in the authn_id member.  The server records the identity value before
checking if the connection is authorized, so it may appear in
connection-authentication logs (even if the connection later fails
authorization).

Also remove outdated wording saying that all result parameters are
ignored when a validator returns false since validators may provide
error_detail.

Patch by Chao Li with some additional wordsmithing by me.
