Description of problem:
When a user is not logged in, `organization` commands in hammer don't fail with the correct:
Unable to authenticate user Invalid username or password.
Instead, they fail with:
Access denied Missing one of the required permissions: view_organizations
Authentication seems to be bypassed, it only fails due to missing permissions (because the nonexistent user doesn't have any permissions).
This happens for `organization list`, `organization info` etc.
Additionally, other commands (like `location list`), on failure, terminate the Hammer session that has previously been created and has now timed out. Organization commands don't do that and they keep the Hammer session alive and invalid:
# hammer --username admin --password changeme --interactive no organization list

How reproducible:
Deterministic on sat 6.18+
Is this issue a regression from an earlier version:
Yes, it doesn't happen on Sat < 6.18.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set session Idle Timeout to 1 minute in Administer -> Authentication
2. Run the reproducer shown above
Actual behavior:
"Access denied: Missing one of the required permissions: view_organizations" is shown as an error and the Hammer session is not terminated
Expected behavior:
"Unable to authenticate user: Invalid username or password." is shown as error and the Hammer session is terminated.
Business Impact / Additional info:
Related to SAT-38951 where I already reported this behavior but it hasn't been fixed there.
