Description

When it was originally submitted to Hadoop, the ABFS driver disabled TLS when using the URI scheme "abfs", and enabled TLS when using the URI scheme "abfss". This was reflected in the documentation originally submitted for ABFS: https://github.com/apache/impala/commit/5baa289fd039d339c63d5c475645e69fe0c6b8df.

We should update that to reflect that TLS is enabled with either URI scheme unless you disable TLS in configuration by setting fs.azure.always.use.https=false in the configuration.
