Ryan McKinley updated HTTPCLIENT-1394:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: HTTPCLIENT-1394-jna.patch

Here is a patch adding a WindowsNegotiateScheme that uses JNA.

Take a look and let me know what you guys think.

Big open questions:
1. What should we do with Credentials?  This adds a singleton 
CurrentUserCredentials, but it is not really used

2. Testing?  are there useful tests we can add without a server side 
implementation?  For the existing NTLM, i see assertions for the engine, but 
not the schema.  For Kerberose and SPNego I don't see anything.

3. Default configuration?  This implementation obviously needs to prove itself, 
but should this be the default on windows rather than SPNegoSchemeFactory?

> HttpClient has made great progress in supporting NTLM and Negotiate, but the 
> setup often requires considerable configuration.  Using native calls, we can 
> authenticate the current logged in user directly via windows with no 
> configuration.
