what is the difference between plaintext and sasl_plaintext for the security.protocol?

sort of found some but not clear explaination here: https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/kafka/authentication_sasl/authentication_sasl_plain.html

but it does not explain the difference between plaintext and sasl_plaintext

so to me this librdkafa's confugration for security.protocol probably made the two (plaintext and sasal_plaintext) the same.
