Description

The index.md for adl file system is missing one of the config entries needed for setting up OAuth with client credentials. Users need to set the key dfs.adls.oauth2.access.token.provider.type = ClientCredential, but the instructions do not say that.

This has led to people not being able to connect to the backend after setting up a cluster with ADL.
