Fixes #35816

This is still a bit draft-y at the moment, but this is a good spot to stop and discuss the direction.

Initial goals ...

  • General guidance and example improvements.
  • Add ✨ Blazor goodness ✨.
  • Drop the RP sample app ... not necessary ... bloating the repo ... not maintained.

Dan, you stated ...

For consistency, this content should be consolidated into authn-and-authz docs that live under the corresponding areas for those technologies. In cases where we use these technologies to demonstrate general authorization concepts, we should instead use Minimal APIs & Blazor to demonstrate those concepts.

There's no separate or pivoted MVC/RP authn-and-authz docs yet (no node/folder of such articles). Which approach do you prefer:

  • Pivot this coverage in this article by UI stack.
  • Create either separate MVC and RP articles on simple auth in their UI stack areas or create one separate MVC/RP article on simple auth somewhere in the UI stack area. Let me know which (one article for MVC/RP or two articles, MVC and RP with separate coverage). Note that this will be a first for the doc set, so there will be one or two new nodes created for this and other MVC/RP split out coverage from the Security and Identity node.
  • Go with what the PR is doing now ... i.e., just talk about the UI stack approaches together.
