/**
 * `Strategy` constructor.
 *
 * The local authentication strategy authenticates requests based on the
 * credentials submitted through an HTML-based login form.
 *
 * Applications must supply a `verify` callback which accepts `username` and
 * `password` credentials, and then calls the `done` callback supplying a
 * `user`, which should be set to `false` if the credentials are not valid.
 * If an exception occurred, `err` should be set.
 *
 * Optionally, `options` can be used to change the fields in which the
 * credentials are found.
 *
 * Options:
 *   - `usernameField`  field name where the username is found, defaults to _username_
 *   - `passwordField`  field name where the password is found, defaults to _password_
 *   - `passReqToCallback`  when `true`, `req` is the first argument to the verify callback (default: `false`)
 *
 * Examples:
 *
 *     passport.use(new LocalStrategy(
 *       function(username, password, done) {
 *         User.findOne({ username: username, password: password }, function (err, user) {
 *           done(err, user);
 *         });
 *       }
 *     ));
 *
 * @param {Object} options
 * @param {Function} verify
 * @api public
