stack updated HBASE-16231:
--------------------------
Release Note: Prior to this change, the integration test clients
(IntegrationTest*) relied on the Kerberos credential cache for authentication
against secured clusters. This could lead to the tests failing due to
authentication failures when the tickets in the credential cache expired. With
this change, the integration test clients will make use of the configuration
properties for "hbase.client.keytab.file" and "hbase.client.kerberos.principal"
(They are required). This will perform a login from the configured keytab file
and automatically refresh the credentials in the background for the process
lifetime. (was: Prior to this change, the integration test clients
