Title: Clarification for UsernameToken assertion

Description:

The UsernameToken defines additonal (optional) assertions that specify
the WSS spec version. IMHO this is not enough to fully specify a
UsernameToken. For example a UsernameToken may have a additonal
elements such as a creation time. The WSS specs do not define in any
way if such elements shall be included or not (some are recommended but
no mandated).

Related issues:
none

Proposed Resolution:

The UsernameToken assertion should be extended to better reflect the
WSS username token elements and attributes.
