> h2. Problem
> {{fetchX509Svid}} sets the whole {{X509Svid}} as the message body:
> {code:java}
> X509Svid svid = client.fetchX509Context().getDefaultSvid();
> message.setBody(svid);
> {code}
> {{X509Svid}} carries the *private key*. A route that only wants to know its 
> own identity - to log it, to route on it, to put the SPIFFE ID in a header - 
> has no way to avoid handling key material, and any tracing, logging or error 
> handler that touches the body then handles it too.
> This was flagged in review (CAMEL-23305) and the documentation warns against 
> logging the body for these operations, which is a mitigation for the symptom 
> rather than for the exposure.
> h2. Proposal
> Let the route ask for what it actually needs. For example an option or 
> operation variant that returns only the SPIFFE ID and expiry (already 
> available as {{CamelSpiffeSpiffeId}} / {{CamelSpiffeExpiry}} headers) and 
> leaves the body untouched, or returns the certificate chain without the key.
> The full {{X509Svid}} must remain available - it is what makes programmatic 
> mTLS possible - so this is about not making the key the *default* payload for 
> a route that never asked for it.
> h2. Scope
> {{main}} only. Additive; the current behaviour stays reachable.
