/**
* Performs either **preemptive** authentication before connecting to a proxy server, or
* **reactive** authentication after receiving a challenge from either an origin web server or proxy
* server.
*
* ## Preemptive Authentication
*
* To make HTTPS calls using an HTTP proxy server OkHttp must first negotiate a connection with
* the proxy. This proxy connection is called a "TLS Tunnel" and is specified by
* [RFC 2817][1]. The HTTP CONNECT request that creates this tunnel connection is special: it
* does not participate in any [interceptors][Interceptor] or [event listeners][EventListener]. It
* doesn't include the motivating request's HTTP headers or even its full URL; only the target
* server's hostname is sent to the proxy.
*
* Prior to sending any CONNECT request OkHttp always calls the proxy authenticator so that it may
* prepare preemptive authentication. OkHttp will call [authenticate] with a fake `HTTP/1.1 407
* Proxy Authentication Required` response that has a `Proxy-Authenticate: OkHttp-Preemptive`
* challenge. The proxy authenticator may return either an authenticated request, or null to
* connect without authentication.
*
* ```
* for (Challenge challenge : response.challenges()) {
* // If this is preemptive auth, use a preemptive credential.
* if (challenge.scheme().equalsIgnoreCase("OkHttp-Preemptive")) {
* return response.request().newBuilder()
* .header("Proxy-Authorization", "secret")
* .build();
* }
* }
* return null; // Didn't find a preemptive auth scheme.
* ```
*
* ## Reactive Authentication
*
* Implementations authenticate by returning a follow-up request that includes an authorization
* header, or they may decline the challenge by returning null. In this case the unauthenticated
* response will be returned to the caller that triggered it.
*
* Implementations should check if the initial request already included an attempt to
* authenticate. If so it is likely that further attempts will not be useful and the authenticator
* should give up.
*
* When reactive authentication is requested by an origin web server, the response code is 401
* and the implementation should respond with a new request that sets the "Authorization" header.
*
* ```
* if (response.request().header("Authorization") != null) {
* return null; // Give up, we've already failed to authenticate.
* }
*
* String credential = Credentials.basic(...)
* return response.request().newBuilder()
* .header("Authorization", credential)
* .build();
* ```
*
* When reactive authentication is requested by a proxy server, the response code is 407 and the
* implementation should respond with a new request that sets the "Proxy-Authorization" header.
*
* ```
* if (response.request().header("Proxy-Authorization") != null) {
* return null; // Give up, we've already failed to authenticate.
* }
*
* String credential = Credentials.basic(...)
* return response.request().newBuilder()
* .header("Proxy-Authorization", credential)
* .build();
* ```
*
* The proxy authenticator may implement preemptive authentication, reactive authentication, or
* both.
*
* Applications may configure OkHttp with an authenticator for origin servers, or proxy servers,
* or both.
*
* ## Authentication Retries
*
* If your authentication may be flaky and requires retries you should apply some policy
* to limit the retries by the class of errors and number of attempts. To get the number of
* attempts to the current point use this function.
*
* ```
* private int responseCount(Response response) {
* int result = 1;
* while ((response = response.priorResponse()) != null) {
* result++;
* }
* return result;
* }
* ```
*
* [1]: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2817

fun interface Authenticator {
/**
* Returns a request that includes a credential to satisfy an authentication challenge in
* [response]. Returns null if the challenge cannot be satisfied.
*
* The route is best effort, it currently may not always be provided even when logically
* available. It may also not be provided when an authenticator is re-used manually in an
* application interceptor, such as when implementing client-specific retries.
