[I] Root `polaris-server.yml` not usable [polaris]

snazy opened a new issue, #620:
URL: https://github.com/apache/polaris/issues/620

   ### Describe the bug
   
   The `polaris-server.yml` in the root folder is made for testing purposes, and is by far not usable in production-ish setups. This is not nice and causes a lot of confusion and try-and-error round-trips - most of those errors aren't immediately visible to end users and only discoverable using an attached debugger.
   
   Summary of the issues:
   * The `default-realm` cannot be bootstrapped - something like `export POLARIS_BOOTSTRAP_DEFAULT-REALM_ROOT_CLIENT_ID=default_root_client`, as documented, does not work in e.g. `bash` - also: nothing says that the realm and principal name must be upper case in the env var names.
   * `oauth2` is configured to `test` - that doesn't make sense for prod use cases
   * `authenticator` same as for `oauth2`
   * `tokenBroker` is not configured and not mentioned at all in the config file
   * `defaultRealm` and `defaultRealms` options are at least confusing
   
   The code design makes it extremely hard for users, even engineers, to figure out that and even harder why things do not work.
   
   I propose to use this issue to come up with a better config mechanism via #469 and follow-ups.
   
   The default configuration should at least work.
