Security Update

v1.8.6 and v1.8.7 have many security enhancements. For all end user operations CyberPanel now use run-as user (the website user) to perform those operations. Special CyberPanel -> LSCPD connection is used for security communication for different sort of user elevation and to drop priviliges when necessary. Authentication token is used for communication to prevent un-athorized access to the command socket.

This will be our first security release in our 2-stage security release model. Everyone must update your servers to v1.8.7 as soon as possible.
