> webhdfs's HTTP operation like get ( GetOpParam.java) operation and other HTTP 
> operation has 'requireAuth' set to false and expected to work with Delegation 
> token only. However, when working with webhdfs over Apache Knox, delegation 
> token authentication is not supported, we should support Kerberos 
> authentication (SPNEGO) or Basic authentication for WebHdfsFileSystem if user 
> turns on a configuration.
> Further webhdfs (WebHDFSFileSystem.java)  is calling 'public URLConnection 
> openConnection(URL url)' and providing no way to use the kerberos 
> authentication, if configured.
> Even after setting the UserGroupInformation with user name and keytab, 
> openConnection is not using the keytab for authentication.
> Also WebHdfsFileSystem doesn't provide any support for HTTP BASIC 
> authentication (username/password). Provide support to read the password via 
> environment variable.
