This commit introduces the client-side implementation of the external authorization filter.
The main component is the
ExtAuthzClientInterceptor, which intercepts outgoing RPCs and performs external authorization checks. It uses aBufferingAuthzClientCallto buffer the outgoing RPC until the authorization decision is received from the authorization service.I tried using
DelayedClientCallbut that's a final class with a protected constructor that made extending it to start a background call slightly difficultThe following new classes are introduced:
ExtAuthzClientInterceptor: The main client interceptor for external authorization.BufferingAuthzClientCall: AClientCallimplementation that buffers requests until an authorization decision is made.CallBuffer: A helper class forBufferingAuthzClientCallto manage the buffered calls.FailingClientCall: A utilityClientCallthat immediately fails, used when the filter is disabled and configured to deny calls.This commit also includes comprehensive unit and integration tests for the new components.
