This PR introduces a new Key Provider to support Azure Key Vault as a Key Management System (KMS) for Encryption at Rest. The core design principle is the same as in the AWS and GCP key providers - an externally provided Vault key that is used to protect local data encryption keys (a process known as "key wrapping").
In more detail, this patch series consists of:
* Multiple Azure credential sources, offering a variety of authentication options (Service Principals, Managed Identities, environment variables, Azure CLI).
* The Azure host - the Key Vault endpoint bridge.
* The Azure Key Provider - the interface for the Azure host.
* Unit tests using real Azure resources (credentials and Vault keys).
* Log filtering logic to not expose sensitive data in the logs (plaintext keys, credentials, access tokens).
This is part of the overall effort to support Azure deployments.
Testing done:
* Unit tests.
* Manual test on an Azure VM with a Managed Identity.
* Manual test with credentials from Azure CLI.
* Manual test of `--azure-hosts` cmdline option.
* Manual test of log filtering.
Remaining items:
- [x] Create necessary Azure resources for CI.
- [x] Merge pipeline changes (https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-pkg/pull/5201).
Closes https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-enterprise/issues/1077.
New feature. No backport is needed.
