      sasl: -- example 1
    mechanism: plain -- sasl defaults to plain if not specified
    username: "myuser"
    password: "mypassword"

  sasl: -- example 2
    mechanism: external
    authzid: "otheruser" -- optional

  sasl: -- example 3
    mechanism: ecdsa-nist256p-challenge
    username: "myuser"
    private-key: "path/to/my.key"

    Note that now using a client-side TLS certificate is an independent configuration from using EXTERNAL. To use both you need to configure both!
