[DOCS] Replace deprecated ldap setting (#36022) 2018-11-30 16:58:19 -08:00

Include realm type in Security Realm setting keys (#30241)
This moves all Realm settings to an Affix definition.
However, because different realm types define different settings
(potentially conflicting settings) this requires that the realm type
become part of the setting key.

Thus, we now need to define realm settings as:

    xpack.security.authc.realms:
      file.file1:
        order: 0

      native.native1:
        order: 1

- This is a breaking change to realm config
- This is also a breaking change to custom security realms (SecurityExtension)

Add support for "authorization_realms" (#33262)
Authorization Realms allow an authenticating realm to delegate the task
of constructing a User object (with name, roles, etc) to one or more
other realms.

E.g. A client could authenticate using PKI, but then delegate to an LDAP
realm. The LDAP realm performs a "lookup" by principal, and then does
regular role-mapping from the discovered user.

This commit includes:
- authorization_realm support in the pki, ldap, saml & kerberos realms
- docs for authorization_realms
- checks that there are no "authorization chains"
   (whereby "realm-a" delegates to "realm-b", but "realm-b" delegates to "realm-c")

Authorization realms is a platinum feature.
