Description

This is a follow-up to KAFKA-1686.

1. Decide on `serviceName` configuration: do we want to keep it in two places?
2. auth.to.local config name is a bit opaque, is there a better one?
3. Implement or remove SASL_KAFKA_SERVER_REALM config
4. Consider making Login's thread a daemon thread
