This changeset fixes a security vulnerability that allowed fresh SAML requests
to use old request ID in order to bypass validation in the response, which only
ever checked for the top-level response InResponseTo field, instead of also
verifying the signed assertion-level SubjectConfirmationData.InResponseTo.

Internal ref: https://hashicorp.atlassian.net/browse/SECVULN-50330
