Nice work Guys!!

We should upgrade nimbus-jose-jwt, as there [CVE|https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-12973#vulnDescriptionTitle] present before 4.39 version.

HADOOP-14799 raised to upgrade but it's committed to branch-2 and branch-2.8 versions.

> Extend AltKerberosAuthenticationHandler to provide WebSSO flow for UIs.
> The actual authentication is done by some external service that the handler will redirect to when there is no hadoop.auth cookie and no JWT token found in the incoming request.
> Using JWT provides a number of benefits:
> * It is not tied to any specific authentication mechanism - so buys us many SSO integrations
> * It is cryptographically verifiable for determining whether it can be trusted
> * Checking for expiration allows for a limited lifetime and window for compromised use
> This will introduce the use of nimbus-jose-jwt library for processing, validating and parsing JWT tokens.
