Description

We will introduce a new type to represent the identity of an authenticated entity in Mesos: the Principal. To accomplish this, the following should be done:

• Add the new Principal type
• Update the AuthenticationResult to use Principal
• Update all authenticated endpoint handlers to handle this new type
• Update the default authenticator modules to use the new type
