Allow proxy authorisation credentials to be stored in the broker registry

Proxy Authorization requires manual adjustment of HTTP Headers, and this in turn requires storing the proxy-user & proxy-password in either UDP's or a UserDefined Configurable Service. Both of these store the password in clear text, and this is a security violation at most locations (banks).

The capability being requested here has actually been a part of the product for several releases now (IIB 10, ACE 11 and ACE 12). Documentation on the specifics can be found here: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/11.0.0?topic=security-routing-requests-through-http-proxy-server-that-has-authentication-enabled

    Thanks for raising. We don't publish the details of the format used to store configuration data. I'll take the requirement as having a well-known secure format for the storing of sensitive data, rather than storing such data in a specific place. This is a desirable capability to have.
