Larry McCay commented on KNOX-1550:
-----------------------------------
Hi [~risdenk] - I think that ClientAuth is too vague even though it aligns with
the client.auth.wanted/needed config from jetty.
It could be argued that all of our providers are Client Auth providers.
As a user trying to find an authentication provider in our User Guide, I would
rather it be something more descriptive like X509CertProvider. You know exactly
what it is from the name of it.
