Description

`peer-auth-init` is currently deprecated but allows the user to supply a class that generates credentials for peer authentication (instead of reading from cmd line or properties). This might be useful for integration with a key management system like CredHub, and allow user not to save password in a plain text format on file.

please make sure this property still works as expected. and un-deprecate it in the docs.
