Add delegation for SPNEGO back to JMeter
## Description
<!--- Provide a general summary of your changes in the Title above -->
<!--- Describe your changes in detail here -->
Newer httpclient versions (at least in the 4.x branch) have dropped the
support for delegation of kerberos tickets over SPNEGO. This patch brings back
the support to delegation back to JMeter.
## Motivation and Context
Older versions of JMeter always tried to get forwardable tickets when using
SPNEGO. As I need this functionality for a service, I would like to have the
forwarding back. As the default forwarding could be seen critical from a
security standpoint, the patch disables it by default. It can be enabled by a
system property.
