Jakob Homan updated HDFS-8155:
------------------------------
    Attachment: HDFS-8155-1.patch

First patch for review.  We've been testing a version of this code for a few 
months and it's working well.

Two types of OAuth code grants (client credentials and refresh/access tokens 
provided by the conf) are supported by default and other code grants are user 
implementable.  I had planned on using Apache Oltu for this, but that project 
doesn't seem very active and it's main benefit - special case support for 
oauth2 providers like github/twitter/fb, etc. - is of marginal benefit for 
WebHDFS and could easily be implemented by the user if necessary.

I didn't end up using the Authenticator client class because it's too closely 
tied to the spnego implementation, but after this goes in it will be a good 
idea to make that class more generic and use it for the oauth stuff as well.
