Determine the Authorization State of a Menu Item after reading its Auth Configuration (If its MenuItem is of type AuthorizableMenuItem). If it not of that sub-type then it is upto the implementation to decide the final state.

The Service implementation must define/accept the User so that the state can be validated against the users Roles.
TODO: Should auth be checked on State or the raw MenuItem? There may be future use case benifits to check on state in dynamic situations

Parameters:

currentState - as MenuItemState @nullable false

user - as User @nullable true

Returns:

IAuthorizationService.AuthState
