Allow customizable authentication methods in SFTP client #6768

Closed Nuvindu closed 3 months ago

Nuvindu commented 3 months ago

Description:

Currently, the Ballerina SFTP connector supports several authentication methods such as gssapi-with-mic, publickey, keyboard-interactive, and password. However, user can't specify only the auth methods they require at the moment, which may lead to some usability issues such as getting unnecessary Kerberos auth requirements each time a SFTP client is initialized (This can be fixed by only using publickey instead of having keyboard-interactive)
