Description

Driver connections to Cassandra from Sidecar currently do not support taking any passwords or certificates. When Cassandra is started with authentication or SSL enabled, Sidecar can no longer connect to Cassandra. Hence we need to add support to take in additional driver parameters such as username/password or certificates in sidecar.yaml.
