63d13a35f3 IMPALA-11880: Adds support for authenticating to Impala using JWTs.
This support was modeled after the LDAP authentication.

If JWT authentication is used, the Impala shell enforces the use of the
hs2-http protocol since the JWT is sent via the "Authentication"
HTTP header.

The following flags have been added to the Impala shell:
* -j, --jwt: indicates that JWT authentication will be used
* --jwt_cmd: shell command to run to retrieve the JWT to use for
  authentication

Testing
New Python tests have been added:
* The shell tests ensure that the various command line arguments are
  handled properly. Situations such as a single authentication method,
  JWTs cannot be sent in clear text without the proper arguments, etc
  are asserted.
* The Python custom cluster tests leverage a test JWKS and test JWTs.
  Then, a custom Impala cluster is started with the test JWKS. The
  Impala shell attempts to authenticate using a valid JWT, an expired
  (invalid) JWT, and a valid JWT signed by a different, untrusted JWKS.
  These tests also exercise the Impala JWT authentication mechanism and
  assert the prometheus JWT auth success and failure metrics are
  reported accurately.
