Bug#1135157: g-r-d enables WITHOUT_FREERDP_3x_DEPRECATED but uses deprecated symbols/fields (rdp_freerdp->Authenticate)

Source: gnome-remote-desktop
Version: 49.2-2
Severity: serious

Since freerdp 3.25, rdp_freerdp->Authenticate is deprecated, so g-r-d
does not build anymore.

Please either drop -DWITHOUT_FREERDP_3x_DEPRECATED, or switch from
rdp_freerdp->Authenticate to AuthenticateEx.

It looks like rdp_freerdp->Authenticate callback is only used in g-r-d
testsuite, not for real.

See https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop/-/merge_requests/399

Currently, g-r-d ci blocks freerdp3 migration to testing.

Thanks,

/mjt
