#' Set up default authentication
#'
#' You'll need to run this function once per computer so that rtweet can use
#' your personal Twitter account. See [rtweet_app()]/[rtweet_bot] and
#' [auth_save()] for other authentication options.
#'
#' It will use the current logged in account on the default browser to detect
#' the credentials needed for rtweet and save them as "default".
#' If a default is found it will use it instead.
#' @return
#' `auth_setup_default()`: Invisibly returns the previous authentication mechanism.
#' `auth_has_default()`: A logical value `TRUE` if there is a default authentication.
#' @export
#' @family authentication
#' @examples
#' \dontrun{
#' if (!auth_has_default() && interactive()) {
#'    auth_setup_default()
#' }
#' }

#' Authentication options
#'
#' Authenticate methods to use the Twitter API.
#'
#' @description
#' There are three ways that you can authenticate with the Twitter API:
#'
#' * `rtweet_user()` interactively authenticates an existing Twitter user.
#'   This form is most appropriate if you want rtweet to control your
#'   Twitter account.
#'
#' * `rtweet_app()` authenticates as a Twitter application. An application can't
#'    perform actions (i.e. it can't tweet) but otherwise has generally higher
#'    rate limits (i.e. you can do more searches). See details
#'    at <https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/v1/rate-limits>.
#'    This form is most appropriate if you are collecting data.
#'
#' * `rtweet_bot()` authenticates as bot that takes actions on behalf of an app.
#'    This form is most appropriate if you want to create a Twitter account that
#'    is run by a computer, rather than a human.
#'
#' To use `rtweet_app()` or `rtweet_bot()` you will need to create your own
#' Twitter app following the instructions in `vignette("auth.Rmd")`.
#' `rtweet_user()` _can be_ used with your own app, but generally there is
#' no need to because it uses the Twitter app provided by rtweet.
#'
#' Use [auth_as()] to set the default auth mechanism for the current session,
#' and [auth_save()] to save an auth mechanism for use in future sessions.
#'
#' # Security
#'
#' All of the arguments to these functions are roughly equivalent to
#' passwords so should generally not be typed into the console (where they
#' the will be recorded in `.Rhistory`) or recorded in a script (which is
#' easy to accidentally share). Instead, call these functions without arguments
#' since the default behaviour is to use ask_pass that if possible uses
#' [askpass::askpass()] to interactively safely prompt you for the values.
#'
#' @param client_id,client_secret Application OAuth client ID and client Secret.
#' These are generally not required for `tweet_user()` since the defaults will use
#' the built-in rtweet app.
#' @param access_token,access_secret Access token and secret.
#' @param api_key,api_secret API key and secret. Deprecated in favor of `client_*` arguments.
#' @param bearer_token App bearer token.
#' @return If the validation is successful the OAuth token.
#' For rtweet_app a rtweet_bearer.
