Digital Identity Management API

Provides the ability to manage a digital identity. This digital identity allows identification of an individual, a resource, or a partyRole (a specific role - or set of roles - for a given individual). A digital identity is associated with credential / authentification method. These credential / authentification methods should be extensible to describe all types of authentification method such as login/password, biometric, token, etc.. A contact medium is also associated with digital identity (or directly at credential level) to manage credential recovery UCs.
