Merge branch 'feature/sso_integration' into 'master'

Add an option to automatically sign-in with an Omniauth provider

Split of !669 as requested

This is useful when integrating with existing SSO environments and we want to use a single Omniauth provider for all user authentication.

See merge request !723
