> In HIVE-27352 we added support for multiple authentication modes and this
> change introduced the "auth" http header,
> which broke compatibility with Impala in the following case: The impala-shell
> client tool is able to connect to HS2 with the authentication mode specified
> first in the auth mode list, but the other auth options do not work because
> the impala-shell does not send an "auth" header to HS2. In a discussion with
> impala devs, it turned out that impala does not need a similar header to
> identify the authentication mode, because in case of http transport, the
> content of the Authorization header can be used to infer the auth mode. This
> improvement aims at avoiding the use of the "auth" header and thus allows us
> to connect to HS2 via http protocol even if multiple authentication modes are
> enabled and the client does not use the "auth" header (e.g. impala-shell or
> older jdbc driver builds).
