GSS-API for RPC authentication

    type user_name_format = [ `Exported_name | `Plain_name | `Prefixed_name ]

What to return as user name:

- ``Exported_name`: the exported name in binary format (as described in RFC 2078, section 3.2). This format can only be read back by the `gss_api` object generating the name.
- ``Prefixed_name`: the display name in a text format "`{<oid>}<namestring>`".
- ``Plain_name`: the string part of the display name

    val server_auth_method : ?shared_context:bool ->
           ?user_name_format:user_name_format ->
           ?seq_number_window:int ->
           ?max_age:float ->
           (module Netsys_gssapi.GSSAPI) ->
           Netsys_gssapi.server_config -> Rpc_server.auth_method

Creates an authentication method from a GSS-API interface.

Options:

- `shared_context`: Whether this method maintains only one security context for all connections. By default, each connection has a security context of its own. For UDP, this option needs to be set, because each UDP request is considered as creating a new connection.
- `user_name_format`: Defaults to ``Prefixed_name`.
- `seq_number_window`: If set, the server checks for replayed requests. The integer is the length of the check window (see RFC 2203 section 5.3.3.1). If omitted, no such checks are performed (the default).
- `max_age`: The maximum lifetime for security contexts (in seconds). If not specified, the time is taken from the GSSAPI credential.

    type support_level = [ `If_possible | `None | `Required ]

    type user_name_interpretation = [ `Exported_name | `Plain_name of Netsys_gssapi.oid | `Prefixed_name ]

    val client_auth_method : ?user_name_interpretation:user_name_interpretation ->
           (module Netsys_gssapi.GSSAPI) ->
           Netsys_gssapi.client_config -> Rpc_client.auth_method

Creates an authentication method from a GSS-API interface.

Options:

- `user_name_format`: Defaults to ``Prefixed_name`.
