I think this is ready for another round of review.

Remaining things I'm unsure about:

Should Chan.T.ServerAuthentication be a Chan.T.SASLAuthentication
that exists solely to carry the authentication interface? It doesn't
look to me as though it's likely to be possible to handle this channel
type generically.

(There is precedent: ServerTLSConnection works like that.)

Should Chan.I.SASLAuthentication be a separate object rather than a
channel interface, like TLS certificates are? That'd let us delete
"SASL" from all the property names without worrying about collisions.

If Chan.I.SASLAuthentication does become a separate object, it might be easier
to document and understand if there was one object per authentication try?
