             Summary: [FlightRPC] Add client option to disable certificate 
validation with TLS
                 Key: ARROW-10105
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10105
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: C++, FlightRPC, Java, Python
            Reporter: James Duong


Users of Flight may want to disable certificate validation if they want to only 
use encryption. A use case might be that the Flight server uses a self-signed 
certificate and doesn't distribute a certificate for clients to use.

This feature would be to add an explicit option to FlightClient.Builder to 
disable certificate validation. Note that this should not happen implicitly if 
a client uses a TLS location, but does not set a certificate. The client should 
explicitly set this option so that they are fully aware that they are making a 
connection with reduced security.
