identity: Add GSSAPI suport for FreeIPA authentication (#52031)
* identity: Add GSSAPI suport for FreeIPA authentication This enables the usage of GSSAPI for authentication, instead of having to pass the username and password as part of the playbook run. If there is GSSAPI support, this makes the password optional, and will be able to use the KRB5_CLIENT_KTNAME or the KRB5CCNAME environment variables; which are standard when using kerberos authentication. Note that this depends on the urllib_gssapi library, and will only enable this if that library is available. * identity: Add documentation for GSSAPI authentication for FreeIPA This documentation describes how to use GSSAPI authentication with the IPA identity modules. * identity: Add changelog for GSSAPI support for IPA This adds the changelog entry for the GSSAPI authentication feature for the IPA identity module.

- If the environment variable C(KRB5_CLIENT_KTNAME) is available, and C(KRB5CCNAME) is not; the module will use this kerberos keytab to authenticate.
