[Fall 2023 Wowza upgrade] [Analysis] Is the plugin API that this repo's code uses being deprecated? #59

this probably won't involve any testing, but if it does, use sul-streamengine-stage. it is probably lower priority than the related upgrade tickets, but definitely seems worth answering.

Do we need to worry about the API our plugin uses becoming obsolete in the near future? There's some indication that the API we use for authN/authZ is deprecated in favor of a newer REST and JWT based API, and may not be supported past next year? But I stumbled on that possibility browsing the Wowza site in general, and my read of it was pretty cursory.
