refs/heads/main from David Handermann
[ https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=nifi.git;h=0e65998 ]

NIFI-8298 Refactored Kerberos and Socket classes from security-utils to new 
modules

- Created nifi-security-socket-ssl
- Created nifi-security-kerberos
- Removed nifi-security-utils dependency from nifi-processor-utils
- Updated modules to reference new dependencies
- Eliminated unnecessary transitive dependencies on bcprov-jdk15on from over 30 
modules

This closes #4881.

> The {{nifi-security-utils}} module includes classes that perform a variety of 
> functions from TLS communication handling to hashing and encryption 
> operations.  Many of these classes do not depend on the Bouncy Castle 
> Security Provider library, but many NAR bundles include a dependency on 
> {{nifi-security-utils}} either directly or indirectly through 
> {{nifi-processor-utils}}.  The Bouncy Castle Security Provider library is 
> almost 6 MB, which contributes a notable amount to the size of the NiFi 
> assembled binary after completion, due to the number of copies of the 
> library.  Refactoring {{nifi-security-utils}} into more granular modules 
> should remove the transitive inclusion of Bouncy Castle from a number of 
> modules.
> Several capabilities, including Kerberos handling and SSLSocket classes can 
> be separated into discrete modules without dependence on Bouncy Castle.  
> Other classes used for secure hashing and cipher processing rely on Bouncy 
> Castle, but have uses limited to framework components.
