I think we can just make zookeeper.security.auth_to_local a configuration
option in zoo.cfg, so it could be loaded either from zoo.cfg (the static
configuration file), or read from system property if available, rather than
loading it from a random on disk file. This also conforms to what Hadoop is
doing in terms of reading auth_to_local (Hadoop stores it in core-site.xml).
