### Changed

- `req#login()` and `req#logout()` regenerate the the session and clear session
- `req#login()` and `req#logout()` regenerate the session and clear session
information by default.
- `authenticate()` now requires `req.session` to exist unless `session` is explicitly set to `false`. See [Sessions docs](https://www.passportjs.org/concepts/authentication/sessions/) for using session support. Failure to address this change may result in a error after upgrading, "Error: Login sessions require session support. Did you forget to use express-session middleware?". See #939 for discussion of that error.
- `req#logout()` is now an asynchronous function and requires a callback
function as the last argument.
