Determines if the current principal has changed. The default implementation tries

<ul>
<li>If the {@link #getPreAuthenticatedPrincipal(HttpServletRequest)} is a String, the {@link Authentication#getName()} is compared against the pre authenticated principal</li>
<li>Otherwise, the {@link #getPreAuthenticatedPrincipal(HttpServletRequest)} is compared against the {@link Authentication#getPrincipal()}
</ul>

<p>
Subclasses can override this method to determine when a principal has changed.
