This authentication class helps connecting to an EKS cluster w/o requiring having "aws" cli in the $PATH. Before this CR, users can still talk to EKS cluster by using the exec plugin, but now the new
EKSAuthentication
class will help them get rid of that CLI dependency. EKS cluster uses a bearer token which is signed by AWS AK/SK using SIGv4 in a customized format.(I think this is the first implementation of EKS bearer token generator in Java, the authentication protocol is never documented anywhere :/)
