Enable SASL/OAUTHBEARER authentication with Kafka nodes

Our security group is strongly discouraging the use of connection strings when we use the Kafka nodes to connect to Azure EventHubs topics.  They are encouraging all uses to switch to OAuth2 (OAUTHBEARER) authentication when connecting to EventHubs.   

Ideally we would be able to pass to the node, using a policy and a credential,  the needed information in order for the flow to obtain a token for connection.  A second option is to allow us to provide a callback handler, packaged as part of the application, were we could write the specific code to obtain the token for the nodes to use.  For this second option, there needs to be a way to obtain the client_id/secret credentials need for the token call.
